Community Integration Through Co-operative Education

Develop key vocational, self-advocacy and communication skills to prepare you for volunteer work or paid employment in your field. With the support of faculty and Integration Facilitators, you’ll feel empowered to independently engage in the workplace and your community.

 

This program will support you in the development of vocational skills, preparing you to transition to volunteer or paid employment on a part-time or full-time basis in a field that interests you. 

Students will work towards fulfilling the following vocational learning outcomes during the CICE program: 

  • Develop and implement interpersonal skills and strategies to enhance self-satisfaction and employability. 
  • Assess personal and professional abilities, strengths and methods to enhance job performance and well-being. 
  • Communicate and collaborate in the work environment using skills, strategies and techniques that contribute to the achievement of goals. 
  • Maintain an individual development plan that identifies personal and professional goals to enhance self-satisfaction and employability. 
  • Review the resources, services and employment opportunities offered by community agencies to best align these offerings with personal needs and circumstances.
