Program Overview

Are you interested in a career in Trades, but uncertain which field is the best fit for you?  The Skilled Trades Techniques program provides you with the opportunity to explore a variety of trades prior to committing to one specific trade.  In the first year, examine four different trade areas such as bricklaying, carpentry, electrical, plumbing, welding, truck and transport, and marine diesel mechanics. You’ll also acquire general skills such as safety, rigging and hoisting, tools and equipment, communication skills, mathematics, and blueprint reading, which are applicable to any trades position.

There is a focus on practical hands-on learning in our shops throughout the program and a work placement during the second year. Trades people are in high demand throughout New Brunswick with many of our students having job offers even before graduation. The best way to find out if a trade is for you is to give it a try.
