O2 Program

Options and Opportunities (O2) is a Nova Scotia academic program offering students a unique high school experience, leading to a provincial certification in addition to your high school diploma.

The focus of the certification is on career development and exploration through specialized courses in grades 10-12. These courses, in combination with their associated community-based learning experiences, class trips, and co-operative work placements, all help to support students in making better-informed decisions about potential careers they wish to pursue upon graduation. We explore university options, programs at various colleges, apprenticeship, and direct-to-workforce opportunities.
