After several years of intense study, a lot of college graduates finally learn something. They're not qualified for the job they want. · Fact is, many graduates never find a career in their field of study. All their time spent in study. Not enough time in the field. That's why there's a nationwide program for college students called Cooperative Education. It allows students to alternate studies at the college.of their choice with paid, practical work experience in the career of their choice. To participate in Co-op Education you don't need to fit into any particular socio-economic group. You don't need to be a straight "A" student either. · All you really need to be, is smart enough to leave school. CO•OP EdUCation You earn a future when you earn a degree.
