In 1941, the Nicolet Seminary became the cradle of school co-operatives. So, as you can see, the COOPSCO network didn't start spreading cooperative values in school establishments just yesterday. Today, there are approximately 100 points of sale in Quebec high schools, colleges and universities. Each fall, nearly 300,000 students go to their school co-op to get books and school supplies. But COOPSCO consists of much more than just products and services. It's also a high concentration of dynamic energy to encourage students to become active in co-operative movements.
Taking part in co-operative values is a real learning experience!
Cooperation and culture: it clicks!
