Co-op Opportunities

Lambton College offers many programs with co-op terms in the areas of technology and business. Co-op programs allow students to apply knowledge learned in the classroom immediately in the workplace. It also allows students - in most cases - to earn while they learn, since many co-ops are paid.

Placement Opportunities

Placements are a part of many programs at Lambton College in the areas of Community Services and Health Sciences. Students in placement programs gain valuable real-world experience while they make strong connections with their community.
