Cooperative Education

Work-Based Learning

Through cooperation between you, your instructor and an employer, you can earn up to 15 credits toward your degree program for paid or unpaid employment in a job related to your field of study at LCC.  Work Study jobs may qualify.

You'll be assigned to an instructor in your field of study to guide you through the work-based learning process.  You, your instructor and your job site supervisor will develop and agree upon learning objectives, applying the theories, concepts and methods you learn in the classroom to a real job setting.

You'll also take a one credit Cooperative Education seminar to build a portfolio or research a work-related topic to help you prepare for future employment.
