Indigenous Peoples in Trades Training

School District No. 43 (Coquitlam) is on the ancestral unceded territory of the kʷikʷəƛəm (Kwikwetlem First Nation). The kʷikʷəƛəm continue to live on these lands and care for them, along with the waters and all that is above and below.

The Indigenous Peoples in Trades Training Program (IPITT) provides support to SD43 students who are interested in pursuing a Career, Education or Training in Trades. School District No. 43 and the Career and Trades Programs are committed to providing equal access and opportunity for Indigenous students interested in trades.

There are several programs and resources available for those interested in exploring or entering Trades. In partnership with the Skilled Trades BC, ACCESS Futures, SkilledTradesBC, WORK BC, and other agencies, we are able to help support students with:

Tuition-free Trades Training Programs
Financial support for equipment and other supplies
Transportation and Housing Allowances
Access to child care
Mentorship Programs 
Free tutoring and learning support
Free upgrading programs

It is our goal to support students and remove any barriers that they may face when entering trades. For more information and additional resources please visit the links provided in the right column.
