In the Management Co-op program, we work with more than 300 employers annually across a wide variety of industries, sectors, and business functions. The Dr. Jon Dellandrea Award, named for the U of T Scarborough alumnus who founded Management Co-op, is given annually to a top employer that:
- Fosters the growth of co-op throughout their organization;
- Provides unparalleled skills development opportunities for co-op talent; and,
- Motivates students to excel in their work terms and develop a keen interest in staying on full time after graduation.

“In particular, RBC stood out by making an early commitment during the pandemic to maintain virtual jobs for students and continue to build their campus brand. The team increased virtual communication and presence with dedicated campus ambassadors, funded peer-to-peer support regularly, and volunteered for various campus networking events. The support from hiring managers has been outstanding as they demonstrated a keen eye for student wellbeing and development during the pandemic. We couldn't be happier to present the Dr. Jon Dellandrea Award to the RBC this year.”
