Important Notes:

Given the seasonal nature of the ag industry, this course is only offered in semester one, with 50 hours of course theory to be completed from September to mid-November and then 50 hours of work placement from mid-November to the end of the semester.

Thanks to the generous support of local agricultural equipment dealerships across the province, the $500 course fee is FREE of charge. Parts Technician 30L requires a work placement, therefore, scheduled work site visits by a supervising teacher from the student’s local school division are also required. Teachers/ Students: Learn more about work placements.
