All Call For Secondary School Apprentices

 Grade 10, 11, 12 students:   Are you currently working in a trade?

 For example, at a restaurant, on a construction site, in an automotive shop, on a dairy farm, or in a hair salon?

If so, you may be eligible to enroll in a Secondary School Apprenticeship and earn a $1,000.00 scholarship. 

If you are a high school student working part-time in a trade, you are probably a “hidden apprentice.”

By registering as a Secondary School Apprentice, you will be able to earn course credits for the work you’re already doing, become eligible for a $1,000 scholarship, and get a head start on earning your trade certification. Talk to your school’s career facilitator about the kind of work that qualifies, and about registering as a Secondary School Apprentice or call the District Career Programs

Office at (604) 504-4618, local 1802.
