The Career Technical Centre offers high school students TRADE 4 A DAY. This gives the student the opportunity to experience a day in the trades in one of their trade programs (list below). TRADE 4 A DAY is normally held on Pro-D days so it does not interfere with the regular high school courses. Other dates are available by request. TRADE 4 A DAY is by appointment only. If you are interested call or email the Career Technical Centre and start your experience today!

Also offered by the CTC is TOUR THE TRADES. This allows students (and their parents) to take a tour of all the trade programs that are available to CTC students. Once students have finished the tour they have a better idea of which trade they may be interested in.
From this point, students can either apply to the CTC program or decide to sign up for TRADE 4 A DAY to finalize their decision. TOUR THE TRADES is by appointment only. If you are interested, contact the CTC Office.
