OYAP
The Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program (OYAP) is a program for students that opens the door to work in apprenticeship occupations through the co-operative education program. Students have an opportunity to become registered apprentices and work towards becoming certified journeypersons in a skilled trade while completing their secondary school diplomas.
To be an OYAP student you need:
to have 14 credits
to be 15 years old OR
to be 16 years old to go on a construction site
