Becoming A Co-Op Sponsor
The Co-op Program will have numerous benefits for the sponsoring organizations. A major benefit of participating in the program is competing for top college graduates through early identification, evaluation and skill development that match the organization’s needs. In addition, the program will prepare college students to be more readily productive upon their graduation. Employers involved with this program should see improvement of their recruitment program and a stronger presence on the University of New Haven campus, widening their pool of potential candidates for the future. Employers may be more likely to hire students who accomplish valuable and necessary work for the organization during the co-op experience.
