for education
Education Minister Sean Conway has an-
nounced a three-year, $13 -million program
to bolster co-operative education and
transition -to -employment programs run by
the province's school boards.
The two-part program, call the Co-
operative Education and Transition -to -
Employment Incentive Fund, is expected to
double the number of students enrolled in
co-operative education programs to 30,000
from the current 15,000, and is expected to
locate first jobs for 9,000 students leaving
' schools.
The program will provide funds on a
shared -cost basis over a three-year period
beginning this April and ending March 31,
1989. The ministry will provide $3.5 -million
in the first year, $4.5 -million in 1987-88 and
$5 -million in the final year.
"There is no question in my mind that co-
op works," Mr. Conway said, in making the
announcement. "The bottom line for co-op is
that more than 90 per cent of high school
students enrolled in co-operative education .
programs subsequently find employment or
continue their education, in college, univer-
sity or through apprenticeship.
"Despite the tremendous progress in co-
operative education there are still unmet
needs. There is the continuing need to assist
teachers to find quality placements for
students now in co-operative education;
there is a need to provide for the ever-
increasing numbers who wish to participate
in these programs; and there is a need to
help those leaving school make the connec-
tion with their first job."
Under the program, school boards will
receive funds to initiate or expand co-
operative education programs and/or in-
itiate or expand transition -to -employment
programs for students leaving school.
Money will be provided to school boards to
help them remove the financial barriers
that prevent some students participating in
co-op programs - barriers such as
transportation costs, provision of safety
equipment, and lodging for students from
remote communities.
The fund will also allow school boards to
faappoint resource persons to assist in co-
operative education and/or transition -to -
employment programs.
