On Tuesday, Co-operative and Experiential Education (CEE) at the University of Waterloo announced a new AI-powered tool to help co-op students. JADA, short for job aggregator and digital assistant, is an innovative tool that helps students navigate the co-op process and showcases potential co-op jobs. In partnership with CEE, the University’s Information Systems & Technology (IST) group built the tool for the existing UWaterloo Portal using Microsoft’s Azure Open AI technology. 

JADA leverages cutting-edge AI solutions to streamline the co-op job search, make vital information easily accessible and equip students with the tools necessary to navigate the world of work. 

Partners in attendance to announce the launch of JADA included:

The launch of JADA is a milestone in the evolution of work-integrated learning (WIL) in Canada, made even more significant by its alignment with the March celebration of WIL month. For students, JADA offers a chance to develop a competitive edge in a job market where AI is redefining opportunities and expectations.
