Co-operative Education/Practicum/Work Experience

Columbia College aims to meet employers’ needs by graduating individuals with first-hand experience linking theory with practice. During the Cooperative Education/Practicum part of the program students obtain on-the-job experience in an organization. This hands-on experience enables them to learn first-hand in the work environment. This experience is critical as today’s employers would prefer to hire people who possess both theoretical knowledge and practical experience.
