Students who leave high school before fulfilling the Ontario Secondary School Certificate (O.S.S.C.) requirements may be granted a Certificate of Accomplishment.
The Certificate of Accomplishment recognizes a student's participation and achievement in high school as they leave to pursue further work skills training or employment.
Students working toward a Certificate of Achievement may take K-courses - alternative, non-credit-bearing courses for students with special education needs. K-courses support self-care, independence, growth in fundamental skills, and work skills development.
Examples of K-courses include:
- Numeracy and Numbers (KMM)
- Language and Communication Development (KEN)
- Exploring the World of Work (KGW)
- Creative Arts for Enjoyment and Expression (KAL)
