Hire a Co-op Student
Would you like to make your business more productive? Prepare for the future? An ÉTS engineering co-op student and future engineer can help you meet your needs!
ÉTS engineering co-op students make significant contributions to a company’s profitability. Hiring a co-op student is a great way to evaluate the potential of a future engineer. Co-op students bring new perspective to organizations along with the skills and knowledge they acquired during their technical diploma (or equivalent) or their bachelor’s degree.

ÉTS trains future engineers who will be able to become project managers in any domain. “A project manager is like an orchestra conductor on a work site: he brings the stakeholders together and moves them forward. It takes someone who has the leadership, the technical knowledge and the rigour. These are qualities that I find among co-op students from ÉTS, where they make sure to train them to succeed in the job market”, explains Pascal Michaud.
