Simon gives him the best co-op experience we could have asked for. I know it’s been beneficial to Simon as well. We want businesses in the community to know co-op is not a one-way thing…where this can be great for the student…it can be a really great partnership and we know theses one of those situations…Through research we’ve found how students learn best through hands-on, by getting up and doing. So instead of them learning about different businesses in a classroom setting, why not get they out working with them?
