IT’S A GREAT TIME TO GET
INTO A SKILLED TRADE
There is a shortage of skilled trades workers in Canada, and apprenticeships are a fantastic option for
people who want hands-on training while being paid. Managed by the Ontario Ministry of Training,
Colleges and Universities, apprenticeship learning is mainly done on the job. Georgian delivers the
in-school portion needed to achieve final certification.
My goal is to become
a certified hairstylist.
The program at Georgian
has really strengthened
my knowledge and given
me more confidence
not only in my work, but
also in my relationships
with clients.

ABORIGINAL STUDIES
I enrolled in Aboriginal Community and Social
Development at the age of 30. I loved studying teachings
from other First Nations. Here at Casino Rama, where I work
in human resources, we employ Cree, Mi’kmaq, Mohawk,
Inuit and more – so those lessons were important.

ANLP
The program
This program focuses on creating functionality in the Anishnaabemowin language
and preparing students to design, develop and implement community language
programs in Aboriginal communities and organizations. As a student in the program,
you’ll study the language as a whole, including the history, changes and current issues
affecting Anishnaabemowin today. Incorporating the Ojibwe circular world view, you’ll
learn to speak the language by first learning about your immediate environment, then
progressively expanding outward to the community, including ceremony and cultural
values. Structured activities provided outside of class give you the opportunity to
practise your speaking skills. You’ll examine the role and importance of language in the
community and how to plan successful, sustainable language programs.

In the jewellery program, there is always
someone willing to lend a hand or an ear. The
program taught me relevant skills in techniques
used in the industry. I’ve since become an
entrepreneur, making custom pieces for clients.

MARINE ENGINEERING
TECHNICIAN (CO-OP)
METC
The program
This internationally recognized program has been designed in co-operation with
Transport Canada Marine Safety and Security (TCMSS) and Canada’s shipping
companies. It incorporates theory and practical experience to prepare students for the
fast-paced marine industry. The program focuses on developing competencies required
to function as part of an engineering team at the operational level. You can expect to
gain knowledge and skills around shipboard functions and effective marine power plant
operations. This is a Transport Canada-designated program.
Graduates may find rewarding careers as ships’ junior engineering officers (4th Class)
on-board commercial vessels (bulk carriers, tugs, ferries, tankers, cruise ships, coast
guard and fishing vessels) throughout Canada and the world. The program may also lead
to career advancement to senior ranks onboard ships and to positions of leadership in
the marine industry upon completion of additional (TCMSS) approved courses at the
management level.
Applicants must provide a valid Transport Canada Marine Medical stating “fit for sea
service” or “fit for sea service with limitations”. In the case of an applicant with a certificate
“fit for sea service with limitations” the application will be reviewed for admission.
Marine Emergency Duties training, which is required before a cadet may proceed to
the shipboard work placement and for certification as an officer, will be scheduled for
students for an extra charge.
Cadets may be subjected to an adverse environment (while on-board ship) such as
noise, dirt, dust, confined quarters and heavy lifting. Anyone with known allergies should
consult with Georgian’s Co-op department. Canadian and foreign shipping companies
with vessels trading in U.S. ports require that all shipboard personnel be eligible to
legally enter the U.S.A.
