Presently, DieTrac is approved by the PACB (Provincial Apprenticeship Certification Board) to offer twelve programs . The following programs are offered at our campus:

• Carpenter (Pre-employment Level)

• Construction Electrician (Pre-employment & Advanced Level)

• Heavy Duty Equipment Technician (Pre-employment & Advanced Level)

• Industrial Electrician (Pre-employment Level)

• Industrial Instrument Mechanic (Pre-employment Level)
