I instruct a mandatory preparatory course for Co-operative Education students.  Besides of the obvious…it is mandatory to graduate, I have formed a brief list of WIIFM, that will hopefully capture the students’ perspective.  COOP1020:

  • offers an overview of the industry within my chosen career path
  • introduces me to various occupations within my chosen career path
  • offers insight into employer expectations within my field of study, and how I can increase my employability
  • highlights the benefits of a Co-op work term for students, particularly the importance of experience within my field of study
  • provides first-hand, expert guidance and feedback on my resume
  • increases interview confidence and knowledge – more specifically technical questions I might expect
  • develops a better understanding of the job search process…skills I can carry into my career journey
  • makes me realize the effort and responsibility I need to put into my job search, and work term to be successful
