Last Few Days!

Thursday June 14 is your final day at your co-op placement. Make sure you say thank you to your supervisor and co-workers. If you can afford it buy your supervisor a small thank gift. If money is tight, buy a dozen donuts for your placement to share!

Friday June 15 you will update your resume and hand in your 'exit' resume. You will also be preparing/finalizing your culminating activity.

Monday June 18, Tuesday June 19 and Wednesday June 20 students will be presenting their culminating activities to the class. All three days are mandatory.

Integration Friday May 25th

Reminder:
  • Please tell your supervisor/co-workers you will not be at your placement on Friday May 25th.
Please bring the following to integration:
  • Blue book
  • PPLP (yes there are still a few who haven't handed it in yet!)

FYI

  • Assignment #4 was due today (May 22nd). I am hoping to have them marked for Friday's integration. If you have not submitted it by the time I hand it back, you will receive 0.

See you Friday!

Mr. G
