CAFCE Research Grant

The CAFCE Research Grant (value: $5000 CDN) was established in 2006 to promote research that helps to strengthen the development of co-operative education across Canada. The field of co-operative education benefits from research that provides a deeper understanding of what engages, encourages, and enriches students, faculty, employers, and staff, as well as studies which analyze various co-op practices and their outcomes. The Grant is available to co-op practioners and researchers.
