The Co-op Workplace Simulation by Velocity

The Co-op Workplace Simulation

Join Velocity for an engaging simulation where your mission isn’t to fix a problem—it’s to understand it. Show your employer how you can go from Excellent to Outstanding and gain the skills you need to win part of the $7,250 available through the Velocity Co-op Problem Awards.

In this unique experience, you'll meet AI-powered coworkers, ask them questions, listen to their stories, and piece together the hidden challenges shaping your workplace. Learn to ask sharper questions, gather real insights, and level up how you think on the job.

Challenge yourself this summer and set the stage to make a meaningful impact during your co-op by attending this workshop. This event empowers you to tackle real-world problems, no matter your field of study.
