The School of Applied Technology was
delighted to host over 150 female students from eight GTA High Schools
at its First Annual Women in Skilled Trades and Technology Day on
April 6, 2005.
These students had the opportunity to visit the technology labs
in a variety of program areas including electrical and plumbing
apprenticeship, robotics, heating and ventilation, chemistry, industrial
design, landscape and wireless telecommunications. This was a extremely
successful day and we received only positive feedback from the students
and their teachers. We look forward to hopefully welcoming some
of these women back as full-time students in a year or two.
Applied Technology has hosted more than six Skilled Trades and
Technology Days for mixed groups from High Schools and on May 10th
will welcome more than 300 Grade 9, 10, and 11 students to Humber.
