CACEE Member Catch-Up => Work-Integrated Learning - Sharing Best Practices & Lessons Learned

Work Integrated Learning takes many forms across the CACEE community, from co op and internships to placements, job shadowing, capstone projects, simulations, case competitions, and hackathons. These experience and skill building opportunities are grounded in strong working alliances between post secondary institutions and industry partners.

In both career education and campus recruitment contexts, similar questions are emerging. How do we continue to expand experiential learning opportunities while ensuring they remain intentional, meaningful, and well supported? How do we strengthen alignment between academic structures and recruitment needs? Where are partnerships working well, and where is there opportunity for change? How do we measure and articulate the impact of these experiences? How can we better support students in achieving career clarity through WIL and in communicating the skills and expertise they have developed in ways that resonate with hiring managers?

CACEE members from across the country will come together to explore these questions and more in this interactive conversation hosted by the Canada West Regional Advisory Board. It is a space to test assumptions, surface practical ideas and promising practices, and strengthen relationships across the CACEE network.
