Program details

Overview

The work placement offers students the opportunity to observe and experience first-hand the operations, processes, and protocols of an environmental technician related workplace environment. It is designed to immerse students in the real world of the work and promote the successful integration of curriculum elements in an applied setting. It provides the opportunity to access equipment or processes that may not have been accessible in the program, promotes opportunities for specialization and provides increased awareness of the industry and job potential. The course is offered as a four week unpaid full time placement at the end of Semester 4. Placements can be at approved local, regional, out of province or international sites, private or public. Upon successful completion of the placement and the required assessments, a G grade is assigned for ENVI25.
