Off Campus Education
Off Campus Education consists of two components, Work Experience and RAP.
Work Experience allows students to explore the world of work while earning credits. Work Experience can be taken for 3 to 5 credits at the15 level and for 3 to 10 credits at the 25 and 35 level. If a student is interested in taking Work Experience they should talk to either Mr. R. Oatway or talk to their grade Counsellor.
Registered Apprenticeship Program (RAP)
RAP opens the door for high school students to gain work experience, and develop
skills and abilities in a career they are interested in pursuing after high school. In
return, RAP employers pay the apprentices' wage, and provide on-the-job training in
one of Alberta's 50 trades.
The time a RAP student spends at school and on the work site is quite flexible. The
student, school and employer jointly agree to a suitable schedule. The student might
work as a RAP apprentice for a semester, half a day, or one or two days a week.
Summers, holidays and weekends are also an option to get the most out of this
opportunity. If a student is interested in RAP please contact Mr. Oatway or talk to the grade Counsellor.
