Cooperative Education & Careers Division

• Destinations® an online careers resource

It is very important that students are provided with opportunities to develop the key skills which will enhance their employability throughout their lifelong careers. This applies to: students preparing for Cooperative Education, final year students preparing for graduate employment or postgraduate study, anyone interested in the career development process.

We have put together resource material designed to introduce students to the key concepts relating to career choice and development. This material is presented as part of an online Career Development module which will enable students to:

• Understand the work environment - Evaluate the benefits of work experience and employer requirements
• Finding your profile - assess their own skills, abilities and interests in relation to different careers
• Finding the fit - Research different career options relevant to their qualification
• Decision making - use different techniques to decide between options
• Applications & interviews - understand and prepare for the selection process
• Learning from experience - benefit from the Cooperative Education programme

This online Career Development module is being offered to students in selected courses as an elective module. We invite all students, however, to browse the site and pick and choose the sections of interest. Check out this resource.
