What is this funding for?
Wage assistance for university and college co-operative students in Nova Scotia
Program Description
Employers can hire a co-op student for a work term of 12-16 weeks. You’ll receive a subsidy of $8 an hour ($9.50 if the student is a member of designated diversity group) for the wages you pay the student. Students must work at least 390 hours during their work term. The program will reimburse up to 640 hours of work. 32-week terms are available in some education programs – please confirm with the Co-op Coordinator at the post-secondary institution.
