Cooperative Work Experience Program Requirements

In order to assure a quality cooperative work experience program, several simple guidelines have been set. These guidelines were outlined during TCP Curriculum Team meetings on the topic. If you have concerns about these guidelines, please contact Leah Akins, the Curriculum Coordinator. This effort has developed from our partnership therefore positive input and involvement in TCP's efforts by all consortium members is welcomed and encouraged.

All cooperative work experiences are to offer the student a meaningful work experience in a technical field and must include an on-the-job mentor or team of mentors.

Students working as a co-op student may work full-time hours when school is not in session (winter, spring, and summer breaks). The maximum number of hours of work per week for full-time students while school is in session is based on the number of credit hours the student has completed in the program. (see table below)

All cooperative work experiences through this program are to be offered with the pay schedule indicated in the table below.

The job description entered on the web site MUST include all of the following:

	Clear yet succinct description of job responsibilities.
	Expected job start date (and end date when applicable).
	Expected schedule and hours/week.
	Minimum program credit hours or prerequisite program courses necessary before applying for the job.
