Trade Certification - Youth Train in Trades Program
Foundation programs provide the knowledge and skills needed for entry into an industry occupation, and the technical training component of an apprenticeship program. This is an innovative partnership between Thompson Rivers University and School District No. 73, bridging secondary and post-secondary education and training while enhancing transition to the workforce. These programs allow grade 10 or 11 students to apply for a Youth Train In Trades Program at TRU in their grade 12 year. For each program the school district pays the tuition and students pay the ancillary fees - a considerable cost savings compared to an adult entering a foundation program!
