Vocational Program Information
Vocational Education is an excellent avenue for students of all ages and provides relatively quick access to good employment opportunities in a wide variety of fields.
Vocational programs offer hands on training and are shorter in length than CEGEP programs because you only take courses that teach you to do the given profession.
For most programs you must have successfully completed secondary 4 French, English and Math and be 16 years of age before the end of September.
Vocational Training Program Applications are ongoing and can be made anytime for programs starting next the fall or winter as long as there is room in the program. Students should apply via the https://www.admissionfp.com site. You will then be invited to go to the Centre to complete the registration.
SOME Examples of Vocational Programs:
- Professional Cooking
- Pastry Making
- Automobile Mechanics
- Computing Support
- Interior Decorating & Display
- Nursing Care Assistance
- Pharmacy Technical Assistance
- Welding
AND much, much more!
