I F A L L '83 -~--~' SMITHERS NORTHWEST COMMUNITY COLLEGE 847··4461 IT'S NEVER TOO LATE TO LEARN Exciting! Challenging! Interesting! These are the words that best describe Fall '83. Your adult continuing education staff have been working harder than ever to produce this quality program. We hope you'll choose one of our many short or longer workshops and seminar offerings. Vocational and Academic courses are also included in our fall line-up. Whatever your fancy, we have something for everyone. If there's a course you'd like to see in the future, give us a call - in Smithers 847-4461, or in Houston 841>-7266. Northwest Community College would like to thank School District #54 for its co-operation and extensive use of school facilities. Last but certainly not least, a special thanks to our instructors. Without you, the variety and quality of our continuing education program would not be of the high standard it is today. Over the next months and years, activities for adult learning should increase. However, economic reality would suggest that new means of providing all the services we have come to expect will have to be found if an already stretched dollar is to be stretched further. Whatever the economic outcome, Northwest Community College will continue to strive to provide local programs and services of high quality to residents of Smithers, Houston and surrounding communities.

The Training Access Program (TRAC) is an innovative approach to trades training. TRAC provides students with an exposure to the knowledge and skills common to all the various trade specialties within the program before they are required to select a specific training specialty. Furthermore. TRAC is designed on a modular basis which allows students to move through the program from one level to the next. Continuous entry into the program on a 12-month basis is a further feature of this program. A wait-list system is established whereby students are contacted in advance of their anticipated start date. This program consists of three levels of training. Each level of training is divided into modules. Each module contains a group of skills. The skills are presented in self-paced learning packages that students will work through at their own individual rate. A realistic time frame will be maintained. Audio-visual materials with practical assignments supervised by qualified trades persons have been developed. Students who have had previous trai ning and experience may challenge test~ and assignments and. if successful. may move through the program more quickly. 1. LEVEL I - Common Core (approximately 2- 3 months) This level provides students with the necessary skills a nd knowledge which are common to all trade areas. Competency in common core skills and knowledge must be demonstrated before a student can proceed to one of the occupational core areas which should suit the student's interest and aptitude. 2. LEVEL II- Occupational Core (approximately 2 months) The sec:ond level deals with more specialized skills and know ledge which are common to the following six occupational cores A student can select one of the following six opt10ns. Carpentry Electrical Mechanics Metal Fabrication Millwright/Machinist Piping Competency in the skill and knowledge in an occupational core is required before moving on to the third level of training - the level of specialty. 3. LEVEL III- Specialty Training (approximatley 2 months) Each of the six occupational cores is divided into several trade specializations. These specialty programs provide the specialized knowledge and skills necessary to become employable at an entry level in a trade area. At the third level of training. a student will select the specialty within the occupational core that was completed at Level II.
