New Westminster Secondary School offers apprenticeship programs in partnership with Skilled Trades BC. The programs allow students to undergo their first year of technical training while they attend secondary school for dual credit and earn credit towards on-the-job learning as apprentices. In addition, students may also work towards a $1,000 Youth Work in Trades Award.
Apprenticeships information night
Parents and guardians are invited to attend “Discover New Westminster Schools” night every year where staff hold open houses to provide information on district programs, such as apprenticeships.
