Cadet COOP Program - High School Students

Cadet Training Co-Op Information

Upper Canada Web Link

After School Cadet Coop and the Summer Semester Cadet Coop programs are made possible through the partnership and collaboration formed between RCSU Central and the Upper Canada District School Board.

The Cadet Coop Program is open to all cadets who are currently enrolled at an Ontario Secondary School recognized by the Ontario Ministry of Education and are in grade 11 or 12.  A maximum of 4 credits may be earned through Cadet Coop in a student’s high school career.

Cadets will still be required to perform to the same standard and to complete the same training, whether or not they are enrolled in the co-op education program.

 Cadets registered in the Cadet co-op program will be required to complete some preparatory work prior to training, a weekly reflection/journal/logbook or similar assignment while undergoing training and they must submit a short final project summarizing their training experience. Completion of this work remains the cadet’s responsibility, and the expectation is that the work be completed during the cadet’s free time.

The Ministry requires that all Co-op credits are linked to a completed course.  It is important to speak to your home school guidance counsellor to ensure the right course is selected and to attach a transcript to your registration form.

Regardless of the language of the cadet training itself, if a cadet submits their assignments in French, the credits(s) awarded will be linked to a French course and will reflect French.
