What is BCE?
Business Cooperative Education is a specialized program designed to prepare students for employment in business occupations.
The student should be a junior or senior in high school at least 16 years of age, have successfully completed a core course in Business Technology Education, have a social security card, and reliable transportation.
Students take required high school courses in the morning and receive on-the-job training in occupations of their choice in the afternoon. Typically, students report to work at 1 or 2 pm; however, other hours can be arranged. Students are usually scheduled for 20 hours or more of work each week. Flyer
