❗ Find your class details

💻 Class online tools

We will use a combination of Slack (for communication), Brightspace (for learning modules and assignment completion), and Coursera (for certificate completion) throughout the semester.

Assignments and other work will be done both synchronously and asynchronously throughout the semester.

For example, the Coursera certificate is a requirement to complete the fellowship. This work will take place outside of program time so fellows should plan their schedule accordingly.

📜 Professional certificate requirement
You have complimentary access to Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate—an impactful learning experience designed to equip you with industry-leading data skills.

Please keep an eye out for an email from Coursera which will give you access to the platform (check your spam if you do not see it).

As pre-work, please complete course 1 below by February 18. There will be a live discussion about this topic with your cohort in the first week of program.

Foundations: Data, Data Everywhere

Completing the Google Data Analytics Certificate is a requirement outside of program hours and we recognize the challenges of balancing commitments. If you encounter any difficulties, please reach out to your captains or program manager for guidance. We are here to support you every step of the way!

➡️ Resume

COOP prepares you to be career-ready for the Data Analytics industry within 16 weeks.

That's why it's crucial to meet the deadlines we set. The first draft of your "perfectly imperfect" resume submission are due on the following dates:

Chicago and Miami: February 19th

California: February 21st

NYC: February 24th

You will then collaborate with your captains to gather feedback and work toward a 5/5 on your resume.

☕ Coffee chats

Building connections with mentors is a key component of the COOP Careers Fellowship. We encourage you to set up virtual coffee chats and informational meetings with your program manager, captains, and alumni as soon as you get to know folks.

🕙 Office hours

Associate directors and program managers hold office hours each week. This is a great opportunity to ask questions, seek advice, or simply check in. We encourage you to make the most of this resource! Ask your captain or program manager for the Calendly links after your program starts.

You are expected to attend office hours at least once during the semester.

🤞 Code of conduct

COOP’s Partnerships Team will organize non-mandatory workshops, sessions, and networking opportunities outside of your regularly scheduled COOP program hour. You are not required to attend, but you are expected to honor your RSVP. You may be withheld from attending future events if you fail to show up for a registered event.
