Co-op Plus

The easy, effective way to manage your workplace experience program.

…the critically important link between the classroom and the workplace.

Imagine a web-based workplace experience program featuring shared information access – and shared benefits for co-op teachers, students and employers. All that – and more – is now possible with CO-OP Plus, a solution from Paradigm Shift that provides the critically important link between the classroom and the workplace, a necessary step to ease the administration burden for co-op teachers, meet curriculum needs and enhance the future prospects of students following varying pathways to success.
