The first activity essential to all cooperative education programs is an orientation session. Students receive a thorough introduction to the philosophy and procedures of the programs to which they are applying.
A good preparatory session will increase students commitment to the cooperative education concept and reduce the potential for problems and confusion as they progress through the program.

Once students have obtained their cooperative education assignments, it is important to prepare them for the work experience prior to their first day on the job.
Group sessions are effective and should tackle both the “obvious” and the “not-so obvious” realities in the workplace.

This is a FACT:
In the Philippines, Rizal Technological University (formerly Rizal Technological Colleges), pioneered Cooperative Education. It is a well-structured program which aims to expose soon-to-graduate students to the “real world” of their chosen field.
Let us go back to Concordia University, know more about their Cooperative Education and try to compare theirs with RTU’s.

Seminars on this are most successful when conducted in small groups with a facilitator who can ask thought-provoking questions to stimulate discussions.
The discussion should prompt student to share insights regarding their experiences and to offer verbal evaluations of their assignments.

Nowadays, when competition in job hunting is stiff, exposure and skills gained from a Cooperative Education Program is definitely a great help and can be used as a job searcher’s edge in getting the position he is applying for. Therefore, we can say that Cooperative Education Program may be used by an institution, like the Rizal Technological University, to attract students who are about to take their college degree.
