Business Education Career Preparation prepares you for the future! You will gain valuable experience that gives you an advantage over those students who have never worked. Being able to include job experience on your resume is very important. Receiving "hands on" experience gives you an edge over other job applicants.
Rules of the Co-Op Program
RULES OF CAREER PREPARATION

As a student who combines part-time employment with academic courses, you understand that you must be 16 years old and that:

1. Enrollment in a career preparation education class is designed for one FULL academic year. Students may not enroll for one semester only.

2. Students must be employed at an approved training station within TWO (2) WEEKS after the first day of school, or they will be dropped from the class. Students are required to work at their training station until the last day of classes.

3. When students find their own training stations, they are subject to the same policies as other career preparation education students. All training stations must be approved by the teacher-coordinator.

4. Students must provide their own transportation to and from their training stations.

5. Students are not permitted to change training stations without the coordinator’s approval. A student will fail for the six weeks if this occurs.

6. Any student who resigns from his/her training station with the coordinator’s approval or is fired for unjustifiable reasons will be given two weeks, with help from the coordinator, to find another approved training station.

7. Dismissal from a training station for insubordination, refusal to work, poor work habits, or poor attitude, will result in a student possibly being dropped from the class and failing for the six weeks.

8. If a student is fired for dishonesty, theft, or immoral conduct, the student may be removed from the career preparation program.

9. The student leadership organization of each career preparation education program is an integral part of the program; therefore, all members of the class are expected to take an active part in all club activities, meetings, fund-raising projects, attend the employer banquet with the employer and pay all dues before the end of the first two weeks of school.

10. Students will not change career preparation classes once they are enrolled. (e.g. from Marketing Education Career Preparation to Family & Consumer Science Career Preparation)

All Career Preparation policies are covered thoroughly in the Career Preparation Education Handbook and/or the Spring I.S.D. Student-Parent Handbook.

ALL PROGRAMS ARE OFFERED WITHOUT REGARD TO
RACE, HANDICAPS, SEX OR LIMITED ENGLISH PROFICIENCY

Signatures: Please read and sign in the appropriate place.

I understand what is expected of me as a student in a career preparation education class, and I agree to abide by these stipulations.
