its when you fast track in a trade, for example automotive, you work for a shop that pays for your education, and pays for your work you do as well. Plus you get out of high school a semester early. ---

Pick the trade you wan’t to pursue, and find an employer to hire you…Then bust your ass off. You also usually need your grade 12, SIN, stable place of residence, and reliable transportation to work. ---
