The Trades and Technology division offers training programs that respond to
industry needs. All UCFV trades programs are based on provincial standards, and
follow a core curriculum common to all B.C. institutions offering the program.
Trades and Technology programs at
UCFV include Aircraft Structures Technician, Auto Service Technician, Carpentry,
Heavy Duty/Commercial Transport Technician, Drafting Technician, Joinery,
Professional Cook, and Welding.
Our trades programs provide
hands-on, job-focused technology training. You can be working in your chosen
field after finishing a 10-month entry-level trades training program at UCFV.
Most of our programs also have apprenticeship options after completion of the
entry-level certificate. Some of these apprenticeship options are offered at
UCFV.
We encourage men and women of all
ages and backgrounds to consider a career in trades. Contact us at 604-854-4548
for more information.
The Drafting program starts each
September and continues into June. Applications are accepted beginning October
1, 2004, for the Fall 2005 class.
Refer to the
Drafting Technician section for
further application details.
Applicants will submit their
application and $45 application fee directly to Admissions and Records. Once the
application has been processed, the student will be contacted by the Trades
Centre staff to arrange entrance exams.
