The Explore Trades for Youth course introduces students in grades 9-12 (primary focus is grades 10 and 11) to a variety of trades paths available at NLC. Students have the opportunity to sample various trades in order to make an informed choice. They will gain a clearer understanding of the standards, materials, instructional methods and academic performance associated with a trade, before commiting to a classic dual credit or apprenticeship educational pathway.
This course provides a well aligned entry point into the Dual Credit Trades and Apprenticeship training opportunities available at Northern Lights College. Students will be introduced to five trades including, but not limited to, Carpentry, Mechanics, Plumbing, Electrical, Professional Cook, and Welding, and will participate in the BC Secondary School level Work Experience (WEX) program through their local school district to complete a two-week work practicum.
