Default Electrical Technologist COOP

Hello

I am in search of an electrical technologist coop opportunity.
This is a long shot but I'd like to see if there are any interesting opportunities to learn and grown in the industry.

If anyone on here knows or are in the industry please private message me for details.

Paul

I am located in Ontario but would love the opportunity to see and experience western Canada.

Companies that are willing to give me this chance receive up to a 3000$ tax credit.

An Electrical Engineering Technologist is not considered an electrician.

I think by you working for a CO-OP, You’re referring to a corporation.

What I meant by Coop is "Co-operative Education Program". This means a program which alternates periods of academic study with periods of work experience in appropriate fields.

I am a powerlineman, some utilities want their new hires to have electrical engineering or power systems technician diplomas pre hire and give them credit on their apprentiships. And I do not work for a corporation, it is a member owned co-op utility.

are you registered through your school's COOP program? Know that's how I and other govt departments hire (FSWEP and COOP).
