🔹 How do I find a work term 🔹 Where do I look for Co-op jobs 🔹 Can I find my own Co-op placement 🔹 How do I apply for Co-op positions 🔹 What’s the process for getting a Co-op job

There are two ways to find a Co-op work term — both are supported by the Co-op Office:

🔹 Option 1: Apply through the Acadia Co-op Portal

• Complete your professional development workshops

• Get your resume and cover letter approved by a Co-op Coordinator

• You’ll then gain access to the Co-op Portal, where you can apply for jobs posted by the Co-op Office

🔹 Option 2: Find your own work term

• The job must be full-time, paid, related to your degree, and at least 12 weeks long

• Submit the job description to your Co-op Coordinator for approval

• Once accepted, the employer must provide an offer letter to the Co-op Office

✅ Your Co-op Coordinator will help guide you through either path and ensure your placement meets program standards.
