The primary goal of the Cooperative Education Program is to introduce students to the world of work through on-the-job experience. The Co-Op Program combines school, business, and industry to offer students training and real-world, hands-on work experience before they graduate. The School to Career Coordinator works with the student to develop a resume, arrange employment interviews, complete necessary employment paperwork, and periodically evaluate and supervise the student's progress.
