Coordinator.
Once
upon
a
time
in
the
20th
century,
there
was
a
land
of
well-defined
work.
People
moved
peacefully
through
a
gentle
process
of
graduating
from
high
school,
going
on
to
post
secondary,
obtaining
a
job
in
a
plentiful
market,
moving
up
the
corporate
ladder
to
a
comfortable
rung
and
staying
there
until
reaching
the
"golden
watch"
age
of
65.
It
was
a
safe
land.
It
was
a
predictable
land,
and
it
was
known
as
the
"Land
of
Job
Security."
Then
a
terrible
disaster
hit
this
land!
It
was
called
"Economic
Shift".
It
was
of
such
a
massive
proportions
that
the
impact
was
felt
from
coast
to
coast.
Sad
to
say,
but
that
idyllic
"Land
of
Job
Security"
no
longer
exists.
Out
of
that
devastation
has
come
a
new
world
of
work.
It's
an
upbeat,
fast-paced
land
of
short-term
jobs,
short-term
securities,
contracts
and
entrepre-neurship.
This
new
land
calls
for
a
work
force
who
have
the
attributes
of
flexibility,
dogged
determination,
creativity
and
a
good
measure
of
confidence.
Co-operative
Education
at
CNC
provides
students
with
the
opportunity
to
acquire
these
attributes.
Flexibility
comes
with
changing
employers
up
to
three
times.
Determination
comes
with
'hanging
in
there'
when
one
has
to
put
up
with
a
less
than
idyllic
work
term
but
knowing
full
well
that
each
work
term
provides
a
new
set
of
experiences.
Creativity
comes
with
making
choices
in
work
and
academics.
A-A
Confidence
comes
with
each
work
experience
o
that
by
graduation
a
co-op
student
knows
where
he
or
she
is
headed
in
the
world
of
work.
The
opportunities
and
skills
one
can
develop
in
a
co-op
program
make
it
an
alternative
that
far
surpasses
a
strictly
classroom-based
education.
Today's
generation
of
students
are
a
new
breed.
You
have
better
resources
available
and
are
more
aware
of
global
market
trends
and
changes,
and
are
at
the
forefront
of
technological
change.
By
integrating
these
experiences
with
co-op
education,
today's
successful
student
will
be
at
the
top
of
recruitment
lists.
Employers
are
telling
us
that
the
top
ten
skills
they
are
looking
for
are:
-
Communication

-
Good

Combining
the

(MGT

with
co-op
work
terms
gives
you
the
opportunity
to
acquire
the
above
skills
along
with
the
always
impor
tant
hands-on
experience
future
employers
will
want
to
see.
