Northeastern University: CEFAM Partner
Founded in 1898, Northeastern University (Boston, Massachusetts) began developing models specifically for work-study, where students spend time in the classroom focusing on Business and Management Theory while simultaneously working in the field, therefore learning through experience, and developing skills as well as earning funds to support their education. Today, 2900 corporations are active participants in this “cooperative education” program, and employ over 8000 Northeastern students each year. Every CEFAM student who attends Northeastern participates in this co-op program.
Northeastern is one of CEFAM’s most established partners, going back to our founding in 1986, and Northeastern offers CEFAM students the opportunity to earn a degree by accepting the first three years of CEFAM credit while completing their final year at Northeastern.
