Students and employers choose each other through the job competition process. Job advertisements are posted and students may apply for up to twelve positions. Employers interview students, and both the students and employers express their preferences for one another.
Students are then placed by Business Co-operative Education to reflect expressed preferences. Placement is not guaranteed but every effort is made to ensure that appropriate employment is made available. In the case of students who are required to withdraw from the programme, Business Co-operative Education has no responsibility for placement until they have been re-admitted to the programme.
Salaries paid to co-operative students are determined by employers based upon their internal wage structures, and tend to increase as the student progresses through the programme and assumes more responsibility. However, students should not expect the income from work terms to make them completely self-supporting.
Students in the Co-operative Programme give permission to prospective employers, in the course
of the placement process, to have access to their records, which contain their academic marks and
their work term evaluations. After accepting a position, students may not withdraw from a
specific job situation unless prior permission is obtained from the Dean or his delegate.
