Rowan-Cabarrus Cooperative Education (Co-op) is a unique academic plan in which students blend classroom learning with practical work experience. This is accomplished through supervised work assignments outside the formal classroom environment.
Co-op is based on the theory that education does not confine itself to just the classroom and should include the vital input that students will gain from participation in the world of work. The program is designed to make a student’s educational program more relevant and meaningful by integrating classroom study with planned and supervised practical experience in business, industry, government, and professional or service organizations. It is called “Cooperative Education” because educators and outside agencies work together to design a superior total educational program for students.
