Fleming College

Fleming College is partnering with Community Employment Resource Partnership to offer two free programs at the Kawartha Trades and Technology Centre – Pre-apprenticeship Carpenter and Pre-apprenticeship Electrician.

Both programs are full-time, Monday to Friday for six hours a day. They start with in-class academic studies, job readiness training, and secondary trade training for eight weeks. Students then progress to primary trade training for 12 weeks before concluding the program with a 12-week paid work placement.

The Pre-apprenticeship Carpenter program will start March 7, 2016 while the Pre-apprenticeship Electrician program will start April 4, 2016.

All interested individuals are required to register for and attend a mandatory information session. Attendees are asked to bring a copy of a current resume, a cover letter outlining the individual’s interest in the program, and a copy of a high school, college or university transcript.

Online registration will be available for Pre-apprenticeship Carpenter information session from Jan. 25-31 only. Online registration for the Pre-apprenticeship Electrician information session will take place Feb. 22-28.
