  8. The Apprenticeship Pathway • a “hands-on” training program that has existed • for 1,000’s of years • one of Ontario’s best kept secrets of post-secondary training

  9. The Skilled Trades • These high demand, highly skilled, highly practical careers are now referred to as “Gold Collar Careers” since many trades people can earn $50,000-$75,000 within 3-5 years of high school graduation • Students and parents need to pay more attention to this pathway as a powerful means of obtaining practical experience and skills, keeping in mind that over 50 % of Ontario’s Grade 9 students do not choose to pursue either a college diploma or a university degree. • HCDSB offers the Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program (OYAP) program starting in Grade 11 – students earn high school credits while they explore career opportunities in the skilled trades.

  10. The Principles ofApprenticeship Training • training is experiential (85-90% occurs ‘on-the-job’, and 10-15% takes place in the classroom) • apprentices earn while they learn • success requires competencies in Math, English and Science and an aptitude for applied technology • leads to a wide variety of rewarding careers in the industrial, transportation, construction and service sectors of Ontario’s economy
