Salary guidelines

Hiring our students allows organizations the possibility of saving on overall compensation costs. Quebec-based employers may also be eligible for significant tax credits and/or funding.

Salaries depend upon the type of work assignment and the student’s experience. Please consult the table below for the hourly wages* for Institute for Cooperative Education students for January-December 2024**. We encourage overseas employers to pay salaries in accordance with their industry norms.

Note: Quebec's minimum wages historically increase on May 1st of each year.

* All figures in Canadian dollars.

** Approximations applied as needed due to insufficient sample sizes.

We see that co-op students bring a direct benefit to our bottom line. In fact, a student just facilitated a $285,000 deal for one of our new products.                                             -Agilent Technologies National Sales Director
