Co-Op Program

Cooperative education (Co-Op) integrates classroom-based education with a practical work experience. Students earn high school credits while working in a structured job experience called Co-Op. The Co-Op Program is a joint program between Mercy CTE and local businesses and industry. It offers qualified Mercy seniors on-the-job training in their chosen career program. Students are able to work each afternoon in paid or unpaid positions. Since the inception of the program, students have been employed in over 100 businesses throughout the Philadelphia region.
