Monsignor McCoy High School Workplace Practicum Opportunity

A great opportunity for community business partners!

The Knowledge and Employability Workplace Practicum allows students to gain practical experience obtained in the workplace. By agreeing to accept a student into your workplace, you have become a valued partner in the educational process. This experience will assist students in becoming aware of employers’ expectations of new employees on the job, develop and demonstrate good work habits, and make the transition from school to work or post-secondary education.

Students will:

  • be monitored at the work site by a teacher-coordinator on a regular basis
  • not generally be paid for training site hours
  • be covered by Workers’ Compensation
  • be granted credits upon successful completion

Your time and concern for these individuals in this component of their education is greatly appreciated and valued by our students and school.

Please contact Pat Weisgerber for more information or to express your interest in a student placement. 403-527-8161 pat.weisgerber@mhcbe.ab.ca.
