Its six weeks and the students try multiple construction trades, with the idea that they’ll choose one. There is no tuition for the program. Participants get $38/week for transportation, $13/day for lunch, and $250 for coveralls and steel-toed boots. (Child care subsidies are available for parents). Participants can’t be a full-time student and they can’t be working more than 20 hours a week. So this is not an option for current high school students, but as soon as they are finished … it is. Here is a link to more info: https://www.uapicbc.ca/programs/govt-training/itc/ At the end of the trades sampler, if the student chooses to go into Piping (18 weeks) or Welding (28 weeks) at our school, we fund their Foundation program. If they choose another construction trade, we will assist with paying for their tuition at a union trainer if we have funds available. This is all part of getting more people into construction trades. Ms. Wispinski NEW!

CAREER LIFE CONNECTIONS (CLC) – 2018/2019 OVERVIEW: 2 CREDITS GRADE 11 (assessments go towards Gr 12 final grade) 2 CREDITS GRADE 12 (final letter grade and percentage granted) CLC is intended to support and guide students continuously in purposeful and ongoing career-life development. In this course students learn how to set personally meaningful goals, recognize and cultivate relevant opportunities and supportive relationships, and continually re-evaluate and revise their plans that they began in Planning 10 or CLE 10. Emphasis in CLC is put on becoming self-aware, life-long learners, who understand that one’s interests may develop and change over time, but that being continually aware of one’s own self-identity will inform their career-life choices. How does one remain open-minded and aware of the multitude of opportunities available to them in a challenging and ever-changing world? What could your personal journey look like? Through CLC we will continue, over the next two years, to support and guide you towards a better understanding of who and how you want to be in the world.

In this course students learn how to set personally meaningful goals, recognize and cultivate relevant opportunities and supportive relationships, and continually re-evaluate and revise their plans that they began in Planning 10 or CLE 10. Emphasis in CLC is put on becoming self-aware, life-long learners, who understand that one’s interests may develop and change over time, but that being continually aware of one’s own self-identity will inform their career-life choices. How does one remain open-minded and aware of the multitude of opportunities available to them in a challenging and ever-changing world? What could your personal journey look like? Through CLC we will continue, over the next two years, to support and guide you towards a better understanding of who and how you want to be in the world.
