For most awards, an applicant’s chosen program of study must lead to a recognized degree, applied degree, diploma, certificate or license at a qualified technical institute, college or university.  In some cases, awards may be granted for academic upgrading, apprenticeship or trades training programs that lead to gainful employment or further post-secondary programs.
