Cooperative Education Program

Diman Regional Vocational Technical High School has instituted a cooperative employment program whereby students in Grade 12 will spend two (2) weeks in class and two (2) weeks in the industry working in the occupation or trade they have been studying in school. Students can apply for the cooperative program in their second semester, junior year, and senior year.

Our Cooperative Education Program is designed to provide an opportunity to further a student's education through actual work experience while gaining valuable employment skills. Typically, most job sites will have 2 students per 1 full-time job, thus job sharing. Students will attend school for 2 weeks for academics and then return to their respective employers for 2 weeks for Co-Op.

Over 120 employers across Southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island have partnered with our program to provide students with employment.
