Apprenticeships


An apprenticeship is a combination of on-the-job
training and classroom learning that leads to a trade
credential. Once you complete your hours in the
apprenticeship, you are qualified to work in the trade.
You can start the hours in high school through a coop
program, but you need to be signed up with the
Ministry of Training in a formal agreement to officially
get the trade
OR

A certificate program at a college will give you some
fundamental skills before approaching an employer

Dual Credit


Students in the Dual Credit Program spend
some of their time at St. Lawrence taking
college or apprenticeship courses and the
rest of their time at Holy Cross taking
regular high school courses and/or Coop
courses.
Successfully completing a Dual Credit
college course or apprenticeship program
enables a student to earn both a high
school credit and a college credit at the
same time.
