| BTEC provides several opportunities for students to experience the work place and make a smooth transition from school to work or school to post-secondary education. The programs build upon and enrich current school-based learning practices including career awareness, exploration and real world application of academic and occupational skill standards. All experiences are evaluated by the on site supervisors providing valuable feedback to students and instructors.
