Student and Employer Alike Cooperative training enables the pupils to combine classroom work with super- vised and coordinated business experience. Supervised training, supplemented by di- rected study, is the core of the program. Pupils work a minimum of fifteen hours a week and are paid a beginning hourly wage. 'ihere are mcmy advantages of the Co- operative training program to the pupil. the employer, and the school. The pupil gains practical experience without sacrificing time in finishing his high school education. He obtains more insight into the business than the regular employee, since it is agreed by the coop- erating employers that they are assisting in an educational program and not simply procuring employees to perform immediate tasks. The pupil has a reasonable chance of being hired full-time upon graduation. by the business in which he has worked as a pupil. He gains much more from his classroom work since it takes on new meaning in view of his practical experience. He has an opportunity to decide on his needs for further education as a result of practical experience in one occupation. He is further able to earn something toward his school expenses while earning credits towards graduation. The employer gains a new supply of interested and satisfied workers who are being trained in office occupations and are able to intelligently perform immediate tasks. This program also reduces the cost of recruiting and training for the business. The school is able to aid pupils in mak- ing the adjustment between school and job. It also enables the school to provide vocational training adjusted to the needs of the local business community and leads to an understanding of mutual problems.
