Introduction

Cooperative Education provides practical learning experiences for Grade 11 and Grade 12 students through work placements in the community that are related to either one or two in-school courses. Two or four credits can be earned by working for a half day or a full day at a co-op placement. Cooperative Education provides valuable skills and experiences for students in all pathways such as the workplace, university or college. Placements are available in a variety of different career areas including: hospitals, schools, construction trades, daycares, accounting, auto mechanics, computer technicians, health care, television arts, hospitality, culinary, and many more!  
   
Students enrolled in a Cooperative Education course that is considered an apprenticeable trade (motive power, service, construction, or industrial), are eligible for the Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program (OYAP). All students participating in OYAP must:
 
   
1. Be 16 years of age or older
2. Have completed 16 credits towards the OSSD prior to starting the program
