Admission Requirements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Each vocational training program has its own prerequisites, ranging from Secondary II to Secondary V depending on the program.

Missing a prerequisite?\u00a0We can help.<\/strong>
-Concurrent studies:<\/strong> In many programs, you can start your vocational training right away and complete your missing courses at the same time.
