UBC Science Co-op works closely with local, national, and international employers to develop challenging, career-related positions for our students. What is Co-operative Education? Co-operative Education (Co-op) integrates students' academic education (classroom-based learning) with relevant, supervised, and paid work experience (work-based learning). UBC Science Co-op placements are typically held in three annual work terms: Fall (Sept â Dec), Winter (Jan â Apr) and Summer (May â Aug).
Regulation A is a conditional securities exemption allowing for public offers and sales of up to $5 million dollars of securities in a 12-month period. To be eligible to use Regulation A a company must be organized under the laws of the United States or Canada, must not be an investment company or blank check company and must not be subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act.
This is a complimentary program sponsored by Vintage Group. The new Regulation A+ went into effect in June of 2015 with the intent of reviving the smaller IPO market by allowing companies to accept funds from both accredited and non-accredited investors. This has provided a new option for companies to raise capital for growth. There are a variety of differences between making a Regulation A+ Offering and making an Initial Public Offering in order to raise capital, and each type of offering can have benefits for different types of companies.
