How does a company become a Co-op employer?
All details and steps are listed on the "Become A Co-op Employer" page.

An industry representative wanting to create a Co-op program can contact the College of Technology Office of Cooperative Education with information about positions they have available.

Do the students have access to our available positions?
The position and the deadline date for student applications are advertised through PlacePro, our web-based Co-op management system. Students who are interested in the position submit their resumes through PlacePro, which are then forwarded via e-mail to the interested employer at an agreed upon deadline date.

How are interviews scheduled?
The student is notified if they will receive an interview and where it will take place. The student can be notified by the employer or the Co-op Office and the interviews can be scheduled wherever is most convenient for the employer. The Co-op Office will be involved as much or as little as the employer desires.

Does my company need to maintain contact with the Co-op Office for future Co-ops?
Yes. Our office understands that your plans may change, that is why communication is important, to keep all involved parties informed. If the employer would like to set up a future Co-op, this can be done via your personal PlacePro account. Please contact our office for more information.

What qualities do you look for in a Co-op employer?

        - A company who is able to provide a learning experience for a student, related to their major.
        - A company who is willing to work with our offices for student application and student interviews.
