Program Overview

This program trains students to become pipefitters, who construct and repair piping systems for various industries. Students gain hands-on experience with tools and materials, including copper, iron, and plastics, and learn about pre-practical training, safety, trade math, and science. They also participate in a community project involving the plumbing of a house. Apprentices are responsible for purchasing textbooks and provincial competency manuals, and tuition fees must be paid while attending TRU.
