Check Out if You Are Eligible
Some students may be eligible for the Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program (OYAP). This program will allow students to begin the registration process for apprenticeship with the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities. As a St. Nicholas student, you can discuss this opportunity with your teacher.
OYAP is a specialized program that enables full-time students who are 16 years of age or older (minimum of 16 high school credits completed) to explore careers in the skilled trades (earning co-op credits in related curriculum courses) while earning valuable workplace experience in an occupation that requires apprenticeship before they graduate from high school. High school students may be officially registered as apprentices in their trade area (Ministry of Labour, Training and Skills Development) and begin their post-secondary apprenticeship training program.
