NAIT
A LEADING POLYTECHNIC COMMITTED TO STUDENT SUCCESS
NAIT( the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology), is one of only two schools in the province offering a full-complement, four-period program of sheet-metal apprenticeship training. NAIT has been training sheet metal workers since 1962.
Located at our Patricia Campus( 12204 149 Street), the program offers 336 student seats this year( 2015-16).
Our 14 instructors have diverse experience from every aspect of the trade – industrial, residential, service, installation and manufacturing.
The program includes instruction in all elements of sheet metal work in a variety of industries and a settings, from HVAC systems to lab equipment to architectural and ornamental objects. Apprentices are also trained in residential, commercial and industrial blueprint-reading. Students spend half their day in classrooms and labs, and the other half in the shop applying what they have learned and refining their skills.
We work closely with the RAP( Registered Apprenticeship Program) in high schools. During last year’ s career fair, we provided instructors to assist potential young apprentices with the opportunity to gain some insight into our trade by creating a project of their own.
NAIT is a leading Canadian polytechnic known for its hands-on, technology-based learning. NAIT serves close to 60,000 credit and non-credit students and has a 95 per cent employer satisfaction rating. ❖
