Students are encouraged to book a career appointment with Ms. Groundwater in Grade 12 to explore career options, to look at education or training requirements needed to obtain employment in a particular field, to learn about post-secondary programs and gain information on scholarships. Please email brandy.groundwater@rdcrs.ca for an appointment.
*Please note appointments will be available to Grade 11 students in late November. Grade 10's will be later on in the second semester.
There are some opportunities where students can learn about some credits they didn't know they could earn and gain some experience in fields that they will succeed in.
RAP - Registered Apprenticeship Program
The Registered Apprenticeship Program (RAP) is an apprenticeship program for high school students where students who are attending high school to earn their Alberta High School Diploma or Certificate of Achievement, can also work towards a registered apprenticeship.
WORK EXPERIENCE - you must be enrolled in this program PRIOR to the start of the semester to earn credits while you work.
DUAL CREDIT - an opportunity to explore programs at the college level. We have post-secondary partners that offer us some classes that you can earn high school credits as well as college credits.
If you are wanting any information on these programs, please email jeff.lerouge@rdcrs.ca
