A Specialist High Skills Major (SHSM) is a ministry-approved specialized program that allows students to focus their learning on a specific economic sector while meeting the requirements to graduate from secondary school. It also assists in their transition after graduation to apprenticeship training, college, university or the workplace. MMHS offers a Health & Wellness SHSM, an Environment SHSM, and a Business SHSM. Students who are interested in earning the SHSM designation will have the opportunity to participate in reach aheads, career exploration and specialized certifications. To earn the SHSM designation students MUST earn a minimum of 2 Cooperative Education credits in an SHSM Placement Area.
ALL SHSM students are Co-op Students. But not all Co-op Students are SHSM students.
