Co-op

Co-operative education is a planned learning experience in the community for which students earn credits. The work placement enables students to earn credits by integrating classroom theory with learning experiences at the work site. The placements enable students to apply and extend their knowledge and to practise and refine the skills acquired in related courses.

Co-op programs are available in all secondary schools. Co-op programs can be designated to include one, two, three, or up to four credits and there is no limit on the number of co-op credits that can be earned towards the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD). Learn more
