Checking in with our Sheet Metal crew!

The students started at the Sheet Metal Union last week, getting the chance to roll up their sleeves and experience the trade hands-on. From learning to understand the layout to shaping the metal for their projects, we can't wait to see what they create.

The Residential Construction students have began their journey in the program this week. We could not have done it without the support from Eagle Healing, bringing culture, connection and a healing space for this amazing group of learners.

We look forward to the progress you make, the skills you gain and the apprenticeships you begin.

Let us continue to learn from and celebrate Indigenous
