What is OYAP?
The Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program is a school-to-work program where you can work in an apprenticeship position starting in grade 11 or grade 12 through co-op. You can earn high school credits while accumulating apprenticeship hours at your placement. For more information on accelerated OYAP and co-op programs visit: www.hwdsb.on.ca/oyap.
