A month to celebrate
The Institute for Co-operative Education celebrates its 40th anniversary with a month-long series of online events that runs from February 16 to March 12, 2021.
A panel of industry leaders will share their thoughts and discuss education, business, the workplace and the importance of work-integrated, co-operative learning in higher education.
It will be a great opportunity to learn from a lineup of guest speakers.
We hope you will join us at many of the sessions throughout the month!
