Its all part of supporting the next generation of workers

Stephen Donaldson can see the benefit of 17勛圖s Co-operative Education program every day. The director of research and development at Island Abbey Food Science said several of the co-op students they have taken on have since started careers with the company. 

We have hired many students into full-time roles after graduating, said Donaldson. Its a great way to find good new hires. It is also good, from the students perspective, to get to know the organization and know what they are signing on to.
