COP101 Cooperative Education I

Co-op Education is an experiential course designed to provide training for students seeking to enter or reenter a career field. Students gain practical experiences that are related to their academic program and/or career goals, subject to guidelines established by the appropriate academic department and the Career Planning and Advising Center. Each student is expected to complete a career package, interview for a workplace position, establish five training objectives, participate in at least three workshops and one reflection seminar, write a reflection paper, and produce a career portfolio. The student's progress will be evaluated by the Job Developer, Faculty Coordinator, and Work-Site Supervisor. Students applying for Co-op must have completed a minimum of 12 credit hours at NECC with a minimum GPA of 2.5. A CORI/SORI/CHRI check may be required by the worksite.
