A majority of the skilled trades under the Apprenticeship & Certification Act require a grade 12 diploma. The exception is with skilled trades in the construction industry which falls under the Trades Qualification and Apprenticeship Act. The OYAP program enables high school students to begin their apprenticeship training while working toward an Ontario Secondary School Diploma. This is an agreement with the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities.
