What is Off-Campus Education?

The Holy Spirit Roman Catholic Separate School Division No. 4’s Off-Campus Education Programs provide opportunities for high school students to apply skills in a real life situation.
Offered at each high school, the programs play an important role in assisting students’ transition into the work force and post-secondary education while attaining their high school diploma.
These programs are partnerships between students, school and community members. They allow the students to explore and expand their career interests and aptitudes in meaningful work situations.
Off-Campus Education programs allow students to:

Earn high school credits (1 Credit for every 25 hours worked)
Explore careers
Make valuable contacts
Acquire the skills and work experience

HCS 3000 – Workplace Safety Systems is an Alberta Education prerequisite for all Off-Campus Education programs. HCS 3000 raises awareness of occupational health and safety standards for students before they enter the workforce so that their risk of work-related injury is reduced.

The Holy Spirit Roman Catholic School Division offers many off-campus education programs for high school students:

Work Experience Program: Students work at jobs or volunteer positions during the school year or summer months.
Registered Apprenticeship Program (RAP): Students begin accredited apprenticeship positions in the trades while still in high school.
Green Certificate Program: Students working in a farm or agricultural setting work towards the Alberta Green Certificate accreditation.
