Apprenticeship is an education and training program for people who enjoy learning by doing and who want to work in the skilled trade professions.

An apprentice is a person who is enrolled in a skilled trade profession for the purpose of learning the specific skills related to that profession.

90% of apprenticeship training is hands-on which employers provide at the workplace.

10% of apprenticeship training is classroom instruction which usually takes place at a community college or an approved training organization.

An apprenticeship takes from 2-5 years to complete, depending on the profession.

An apprenticeship is finished when the “apprentice” completes 100% of the education and training, both in class and on the job, and has passed an examination. The “apprentice” then receives a Certificate of Qualification which indicates that he/she is now a skilled trade professional.

Dual Credits were introduced to help secondary students complete their Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) and to successfully transition them into apprenticeship programs. The programs help to engage students, who are more successful when they see the relevance of what they are learning to their interests and future plans. These courses offer a “two for one” as apprenticeship students earn additional high school credits for successfully completing the Level 1 Apprenticeship training.

For more information contact your high school.

What is the Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program?

The Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program (OYAP) is a special cooperative

education program that promotes careers in the skilled trade professions to high

school students. OYAP allows students to earn credits towards a high school diploma

gaining knowledge and experience under the supervision of a skilled professional at

their apprenticeship workplace. Also, for many specific careers, your school board

offers a variety of “Accelerated” centrally coordinated OYAP programs.

WHAT AREAPPRENTICESHIP & DUAL CREDITS?

SPECIALIST HIGH SKILLSMAJOR PROGRAMS

A Specialist High Skills Major program is an excellent complement to the Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program, providing better preparation to students as they transition from secondary school to their chosen post-secondary destination.

By participating in an SHSM program, OYAP students will gain additional experience in their chosen skilled trade. For example, SHSM programs afford more opportunities for transferable, sector-recognized certifications and training. OYAP students who are also enrolled in an SHSM program will benefit from a broader range of experiential learning opportunities, increasing the number of connections a student would make within their chosen industry.

Students who participate in an SHSM program take part in a wide variety of reach ahead experiences providing greater exposure to a particular specialization. Employers will be pleased to note that SHSM students receive formal recognition for their participation in the program. Successful students are honoured with an Ontario Secondary School Diploma embossed with a red seal and an SHSM Record card outlining their achievements.

Over the last several years, your school board, in partnership with several community colleges and local trade unions, has given hundreds of secondary school students the opportunity to “Accelerate” their apprenticeship learning experience while still in high school. As with many high school students who have already made a commitment to enter a specific profession such as medicine and law and take credits focusing on those areas, many students have made a clear decision that a specific trade is their career of choice. Your school board would like to identify and reward those students by offering them an opportunity to engage in an enriched program that will accelerate their apprenticeship development and provide distinct employment opportunities upon the date of graduation.
