Off Campus Education
The off-campus learning programs give high school students the opportunity to expand their learning beyond the classroom. Off-campus learning includes both career-focused (Work Experience, Registered Apprenticeship Program, Green Certificate), and academic (dual credit) opportunities.
Senior high school students gain practical experience as they apply and expand their knowledge, skills and attitudes in contexts that will assist them in making informed decisions regarding their future education, training and employment upon leaving senior high school and allow for the smooth transition from school to work and/or post-secondary institutions
Work Experience
The Work Experience program provides students the opportunity to gain work experience, while also earning high school credits. The program helps students discover their career interests, and further their personal development, career planning and employability skills.
Registered Apprenticeship Program (RAP)
RAP is a program that lets students complete a high school diploma while starting a trade-specific career. A RAP apprentice accumulates hours of on-the-job training as credit towards their apprenticeship, plus credit towards their high school diploma.
Green Certificate
The Green Certificate program provides students with agricultural hands-on training in a variety of agricultural-related industries. This is an excellent opportunity for students to enter a variety of agricultural-related, structured learning pathways as a part of their senior high school program and earn high school credits leading to a career in agribusiness.
Dual Credit
Dual Credit gives students the opportunity to start their post-secondary pursuits while still in high school. The program creates experiences and offers courses students may not experience at the high-school level. Students are encouraged to explore education opportunities and take risks, and can do so with minimal financial investment compared to that of a normal post-secondary course. Students end with credits towards high school graduation, plus a post-secondary transcript.
