Business Co-op

Canadore’s School of Business Co-op Program is a monitored plan where students alternate periods of study with work periods (minimum 12 weeks for business students and 300 hours for accounting students) in appropriate fields of business. The majority of the paid placements are in the North Bay and Nipissing District. But, your Co-op can be anywhere in Ontario, Canada or internationally, where a suitable and approved job is available.
