Co-op Graduates Shine
In 2010, the Co-op Office conducted our first Recent Co-op Grad Survey and collected some extremely positive results as well as very valuable feedback. In May 2011, we surveyed a new cohort of recent grads: the spring 2010 graduates from the business, public relations, tourism and information technology co-op programs. Again, we are thrilled to share these encouraging results with you.
Here's what our grads had to say:
|
| 90% of co-op grads said co-op was effective in helping secure full-time employment after graduation |
|
| Recent co-op grads are employed in all employment sectors - government, private & not-for-profit |

"The Mount Co-op program has prepared me for a career in public relations like no course ever could. Taking what I learned during class time and transferring it into the real world has allowed me to secure a job sooner as my employer knows I have the right skills to succeed." ~Ashley Coffin, BPR Class of 2010 |
