Programs in Private Colleges
Canada prepare students for the workforce and help them acquire essential skills for their future jobs. These programs consist of 50% academic coursework, where students study and work part-time, and 50% Co-op work, allowing students to gain full-time work experience.

What is the Co-op?
By Co-op, we mean a period of work, carried out in a Canadian company, in a position related to your study program, an internship. In this way, students will be able to put into practice what they have learned during the previous months. During this period, students will be able to work full-time for a duration equivalent to the academic one, in order to gain practical experience.
Completing the Co-op is essential in order to graduate and finish the program.
Every college has a Co-op department which helps every single student to get the job to complete the work part. They help students from creating a CV in Canadian format, to optimizing their LinkedIn profile, to preparing for an interview, up to obtaining the job.
What are the advantages of Private Colleges?
