2012 RECIPIENT
The Albert S. Barber Award is presented in recognition of outstanding contributions made to the philosophy and practice of co-operative education in Canada. This award is sponsored by the University of Waterloo and Peggy Jarvie is here to present the award.
I have had the privilege to work closely with Anil Raheja.
Anil has been involved with co-operative education for the past 15 years in Canada and has contributed to the advancement of co-operative education at the local, national, and international level.
Some of his noteworthy contributions during this time included doubling the number of engineering placements at Memorial University of Newfoundland (MUN), expanding the reach of MUN Co-op outside of the province of Newfoundland nationally and internationally. He served on multiple committees to promote and expand co-operative education, including as Co-chair for the Co-op Community at MUN.
Nationally, Anil assuming the leadership role as President-elect, President, and Past President of the CAFCE Board from 2008-2010, leading a number of important initiatives including improving financial stability of the association, increasing the transparency and reach of the board, re-introducing employer representatives and creating a membership partnership with WACE.
Anil served on several committees at the national level, including chairing the Bylaws Committee and the Nomination and Awards Committee.
Anil is a passionate supporter and promoter of co-operative education. He devotes his energy, talents and full commitment to the advancement of co-operative education.
