StFX Co-operative Education
About the Program
Co-operative Education helps students put theory into practice with 12 or 16 months of paid professional experience.
The Co-operative Education route is optional. Our staff works closely with the students in the program to ensure that they are prepared for the challenges that lie ahead when searching and securing their work placements. The department offers professional development sessions to help participants make the transition from student to professional with confidence and ease.
