Vocational Training

Earn your diploma while also mapping out your path to a successful trades career with an education that includes industry-recognized certifications and apprenticeship credits.

Program Overview

Be fully prepared for your future

This unique program gives you hands-on experience in your chosen trade —so you’re not just learning about the work, you’re doing it. It’s a solid step toward a career after graduation.

You’ll split your time between MITT, where you’ll build technical skills, and your high school, where you’ll finish your regular courses. Along the way, you’ll earn high school credits, a High School Recognition Certificate from MITT, and possibly credit toward Apprenticeship Manitoba level 1.
