Apprenticeships/Trades

Here are some links to local and provincial organizations who can provide information and help with becoming an apprentice and a licensed tradesperson:

Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program (OYAP)
OYAP is a high school program that allows you to try a huge variety of apprenticeship-based careers in skilled trades, starting in Grade 11 or Grade 12 through the Cooperative Education program. Students can earn hours towards their official Red Seal trade license while still in high school. CDSBEO OYAP Facebook Page
