Eastern Arizona College offers a cooperative education program for students who have selected a career objective. Designed to give students the opportunity to learn through supervised work experiences, the program integrates students' educational activities with on-the-job learning opportunities.

The program is designed to serve students from all disciplines offered at EAC. Participants include full-time and part-time students who wish to experience supervised on-the-job training as part of their regular degree programs, and career employees who wish to improve their skills, upgrade their positions or move to new career areas through job-related experiences and goals described in a written training plan.

Credit is based on total hours completed in on-the-job learning during the semester as follows:

  • 75 hours (5 hours per week) - 1 credit

  • 150 hours (10 hours per week) - 2 credits

  • 225 hours (15 hours per week) - 3 credits

  • 300 hours (20 hours per week) - 4 credits

  • Select and begin pursuing a career objective.

  • Complete or be currently enrolled in one or more courses related to your career objective.

  • Be employed in, or be able to be placed in, a job that is related to your career objective, and with a supervisor (employer) who is willing to participate in the Cooperative Education experience.
