19-30 a chance to work in developing countries for 6 months to 1

Co-operatives Research Unit,
Open University, United Kingdom
The Open University is one of the
best known distance learning institutions in the world. CRU has
three main aims: to encourage and develop thinking and research
on issues of importance to the social economy sector; to support
the development of co-operatives and other organizations trading
for social or ethical purposes; and to work with practitioners,
policy makers and researchers at European, national and local
levels to develop comparative analyses of issues for improving
policy, development, and management.
Programs are
designed to encourage and develop thinking and research on the
social economy sector, to support the development of
co-operatives and social organizations, and to develop
comparative analyses.
Centre for the study of
Co-operatives, University of Saskatchewan,
Saskatoon, SK
The
Centre for the Study of Co-operatives, established in 1984, is
an interdisciplinary teaching and research institute at the
University of Saskatchewan. One of the key people in its
formation was the past president of the university, Leo Kristjanson,
who found it surprising that although co-operatives play a
crucial role in all segments of the provincial economy and
society, very little research was being done into the role
and operation of co-operatives. To answer this need, Kristjanson established the
centre, in conjunction with people from the co-operative sector,
the university and the Government of Saskatchewan. The
Centre also hosts the Linking, Learning, Leveraging Project,
which is the
Northern Ontario,
Manitoba, and Saskatchewan Social Economy research node.
Master of Management - Co-operatives and Credit Unions,
Saint Mary's University, Halifax, Nova Scotia
An innovative web-based program that
brings together co-op and credit union professionals from around
the world to learn how to combine the principles of co-operation
with active, aggressive management practices.
Cooperative Enterprise Program,
Cornell University, Ithaca, NY
The mission of the program is to enhance the overall
effectiveness of member cooperatives through improving the
understanding of directors, managers, employees, and members of
the cooperative principles and business practices.
Master's Degree in Management and Governance of Cooperatives and
Mutuals,
Institute of Research and Education for Cooperatives and
Mutuals (IRECUS), Sherbrooke, QC
This program
is offered full time in Sherbrooke with the purpose of training
Cooperators to be able to work in all sectors of the economy. It
is aimed at people who want to add to their professional
competence and learn all of the features of an entrepreneurial
formula that places human beings, and the community, at the
center of the enterprise.
Students
completing the program will develop skills for a career in
Quebec and abroad. As a professional, consultant or manager of a
cooperative, a mutual or other social organizations and
solidarity, graduates will meet the needs of members, their
organization and their community.
