Co-op Employers

We will be offering two new co-op opportunities:  a business co-op and an accounting co-op.  The first intake of students is this September 2022.  Co-op work terms are 4 months in length and students complete 3 paid non-credit work terms.  Work terms can be anywhere in Canada, so students need to be prepared to relocate for work terms. 

Business Co-op 

• It is preferred that work term 2 and work term 3 are with the same employer. 
• Work terms will not begin until January 2024.
