Co-operative Education (co-op) is offered from September to June of each year and allows students who are employed in a paid or unpaid position the opportunity to earn one high school credit for every 110 hours of work.
Course eligibility
To be eligible for co-op, students must be at least 16 years of age.
The Day School program runs Monday to Friday mornings from September to June of each year. The Adult and Alternate Education Centre runs on six week blocks, which allow students to earn a credit in the same amount of time.

Dual Credits allow students to earn a high school and college credit at the same time. The Dual Credits program runs various times throughout the year and is an excellent way to sample college, while working towards your secondary
school diploma.

Maturity credits may be awarded to students who entered Grade 9 prior to September
1999. Students may be eligible to receive equivalency credits from their work and life
experience.
How many maturity credits can I earn?
Students may be eligible for up to 12 maturity credits.
Do I have to complete any courses?
A mature student must still complete a minimum of four Grade 11 or Grade 12 credits after becoming a mature student. These credits must include a senior English. Students
will also undergo a maturity credit assessment, which will tell how many more credits are
needed.
How do I qualify for a mature student assessment?
Students will complete a Maturity Credit Assessment Form at the Bracebridge Adult and
Alternate Education Centre. Students are required to provide a copy of their resume and
last school transcript.
Maturity Credits availability: Year-round (continuous intake).

the assistance of a teacher in-class.
