 Requirements / Expectations for Participation
Applicants for Off-Campus Programs must be high school students, 15 years of age or older. The students will be under the supervision of a certificated teacher and the employing organization. Hours of work for the students are between 7:00 am to 10:00 pm, Monday through Sunday. Students are expected to be prompt and regular in attendance at work. Students will be assessed and awarded a mark. Work activity is based on 25 hours for one (1) credit. Winter Off-Campus and Summer Off-Campus programs have different application criteria.
For Summer Off-Campus

This one-credit module must be successfully completed prior to any Work Experience hours being credited.

Some students with previous Off-Campus credits may be allowed to use CTR1010 as their pre-requisite module. Some programs require successful completion of other specific safety courses and/or certifications.
