Indigenous Student Co-op (January-April… at Two Worlds… · Victoria

The TWC Indigenous Co-op Program is an immersive, paid work term of four or eight months that provides hands-on experience in the environmental and social consulting sector. Our work includes analysis, research, and writing for First Nations, Métis, and Inuit clients, as well as for industry and government clients. You will learn from our experienced team through a combination of one-on-one and team collaboration.

The Indigenous Co-op Program gives you the chance to explore several areas within TWC, so you can see how environmental and social consulting work connects to your program of study and your career goals.

At the start of your work term, your supervisor will work with you to set learning goals that connect to your program of study. You will meet with your supervisor regularly for feedback, and we will complete any work term evaluation your school requires.
