7 - Trades, Transport & Equipment Operators

For a young person interested in my line of work you need Math 40, Physics 40 and English 40 to even apply. I recommend STEP* Services since Manitoba Hydro hires summer students through their program.

It is also a good idea to take either the Electrical or the Electronic Technology Program through Red River College. Once you complete your first year, apply to MB Hydro. If they hire you, they will credit you for the two years in the technology program.

*Note: STEP is the Student/Youth Employment Program of Manitoba Education, Citizenship and Youth.
