For post-secondary students, experiential learning is crucial to skill and relationship development. It makes it easy for them to engage and to earn more about the regional ecosystem and the companies within it. For employers, hiring students for co-op or work terms brings fresh ideas while developing the talent pipeline. More companies must embrace experiential learning to engage with students throughout their post-secondary educational journey.
