about skilled trades canada

The Skilled Trades College was established to provide individuals with the hands-on skills and knowledge required to begin a career in the skilled trades industry. STC programs focus on safety knowledge, theory, and hands-on experience through simulated work environments in the lab. The hands-on work provides young adults and those looking to change careers with the fundamentals necessary to begin an apprenticeship in the skilled trades. The high demand for skilled pre-apprentice labour combined with the strong construction industry growth has encouraged the college to expand to offer a larger spectrum of pre-apprentice programs. Today with 5 campuses conveniently located to serve Toronto and the GTA; STC has graduated over 1000 students and prepared them for a career in the skilled trades.
