School of Trades and Apprenticeship

The School of Trades & Apprenticeship is the centre of apprenticeship and skills training in Canada’s Technology Triangle.
 
Conestoga offers a comprehensive array of programs in Construction, Electrical, Metal Cutting, Industrial Maintenance, Welding & Fabricating, Motive Power, and Cabinet Making in response to the needs of industry, and the growth in our local economy.

A featured program design for the School is the Dual Credential model, Co-op Certificate/Diploma Apprenticeship which provides qualified candidates a pathway, directly from secondary school, to both an apprenticeship and a post secondary credential.

Conestoga has established partnerships over the years with many successful local, national and international companies, resulting in program enhancements and significant career opportunities for our students.

In addition to apprenticeship programs, the School offers certificate programs and diploma programs such as our exciting new Renovation Technician program.

Operating from campuses in Kitchener, Waterloo and Guelph, we deliver current and relevant skills based education and training allowing our students and graduates access to successful careers in the skilled trades.

If you enjoy applied, practical learning leading to a rewarding career in areas where there is a growing demand for skilled knowledge workers, I would encourage you to consider the programs offered in our School of Trades and Apprenticeship at Conestoga.

Sincerely,
Michael McClements P.Eng.
