Coming Up at Co-op and Career Services

Career Services and Co-operative Education regularly offer workshops, info sessions and recruitment events to showcase the variety of opportunities that are available to you as a student (and beyond).

For more information and to register for the events, visit the mySuccess Co-op and Careers Workshops and Events Calendar. New events are added regularly, so be sure to keep an eye on the calendar throughout the year!

Coming up in September:

Co-op Job Search and Application Working Sessions – Throughout September (1500 CTTC)

Join classmates and Co-op staff at a job search and application working session.

Registration is required but you don’t need to stay for the entire session – feel free to stop by any time during the session time.
