Administrative costs
The co-op fee covers the cost of administrative and operational services that ensures Brock University’s co-op programs operate year-round. It is not a placement fee.
This continual cycle impacts many of the campus resources, such as facilities, teaching resources, staff resources, as well as promotions and/marketing, and travel associated with securing employment opportunities for you. The Ontario government does not provide additional funding for co-operative education programs to post-secondary institutions, so this fee helps cover the costs associated with operating co-op programs.
What does the fee cover?
- Designing and delivering programming to prepare students for success in their job search, including early talent development preparation, job search training, career advising and work term preparation.
- Co-op job search support, including résumé and cover letter critiques, practice interviews and performance coaching.
