Cooperative Education Program

The Cooperative Education Program at Pathfinder Tech is an optional experience offered to seniors and juniors (second half of junior year) who are at least 16 years of age and have a minimum of 1.5 years in their technical area.  Through a collaborative arrangement between the school and employer, students have the opportunity to perform work-based learning as paid employees rather than coming to school on their tech week. To be eligible, students must have the recommendation of their technical program teachers, and meet the required grade, attendance, and discipline standards. Students must also have their OSHA 10-hour card; some technical areas may require additional certifications prior to entering the program.
