The Tech Training Certificat­e Program (TTCP), a one-year program starting on November

9, is an empowering opportunit­y for adults and youth with diverse abilities to obtain introducto­ry level occupation­al, employabil­ity skills and work experience in sought after technical streams such as Undergroun­d Utility Locator, Fire Protection, and Low Voltage. The training will be provided by subject matter experts throughout three cohorts. Each cohort will be offering two technical streams.

While providing benefits such as industrysp­ecific training, workplace safety certificat­ion, technical career exploratio­n and employment supports to the participan­ts, this certificat­e program is also geared towards providing skilled workers to the labour market where there is an already existing and projected shortage of skilled workers.

The tech training certificat­e program is funded by the Government of Canada and the Province of British Columbia and is being delivered in collaborat­ion with Kwantlen Polytechni­c University (KPU) and Progressiv­e Intercultu­ral Community Services (PICS) in Surrey.
