Trade up! Find your passion in the skilled trades
As one of Ontario’s leading providers of apprenticeship and skilled trades training, we can help you determine which trade is the right fit for you. We offer two pathways to the trades. If you’re not ready to become an apprentice, you can choose a post-secondary trades-related program. This route will help you learn more about a trade and you’ll graduate with an Ontario College Credential.
If you know an apprenticeship is for you, as a Training Delivery Agent, we offer the in-school educational components for several apprenticeship programs.
