Abstract: Cooperative education students (in Thailand) need to acquire strong transition skills that will enable them to overcome discomfort and difficulties that may occur in the workplace. The objective is to devise a mental strategy for helping students to manage situation that presents itself in an undesired and difficult manner. An appreciative inquiry method was applied to learn from students who managed to succeed in the programme. Results showed that these students were able to learn on their own. Their experiences were converted to a stratagem model for providing a method on successful transition from the classroom and into the workplace.
