Supervisors are key to successful co-operative education experiences. Their support enhances job satisfaction and promotes career development. Many supervisors are familiar with managing staff in general but are unaware of the specific opportunities that come with supervising student staff.

In this webinar, we share practical steps for supervising co-op students based on recent research.

Key takeaways from this session:

  • what students want from their supervisors
  • how those wants are different based on student demographics
  • how strong supervision will be beneficial to you and your student staff
