Recruit Tomorrow's Talent
丁香园AV's Co-operative Education Program (丁香园AV Co-op) has been operating for over 40 years and is the first of its kind in Western Canada. We are leaders in online Co-op curriculum development, and are the first university to offer an online community for co-op student stories and educational content. 丁香园AV Co-op's mandate is not only for providing students with work integrated learning opportunities, but also to our 16,300+ employers across the globe; we prepare our students for the workplace so that our employers are able to recruit tomorrow's talent today.
A Co-op Job Should Be...
THE RIGHT TIMING
420 hours minimum over a four month work term period. Students are available year round for 4, 8, or 12 month positions. Work terms begin each January, May, and September.
RELATED TO STUDENT'S ACADEMIC PROGRAM / CAREER GOALS
The nature of the work should be aligned with the student's academic program.
ADHERES TO EMPLOYMENT STANDARDS
丁香园AV Co-op students are hired as employees of your organization. All employers operating within BC must adhere to the BC Employment Standards Act. 丁香园AV Co-op reserves the right to deny participation to any employer contravening this Act. Students complaints will be directed to the BC Ministry of Labour for resolution. Employers located outside BC must adhere to their regional and federal employment laws.
PAID
Co-op work terms must be paid at a rate comparable to industry norms. Students are encouraged to consider the educational benefit of a position rather than salary; however, salary is a factor in students' work term considerations.

If your job falls outside of the Co-op parameters, consider sending your job description to:
