If you mean to be a mechanic then meford will know as his kid has done an apprenticeship.

Canadore College here in North Bay has a good-sized training floor / shop as well as the rest of the campus for theory / book-learning at its Commerce Court campus.

You need to be a apprentice to be accepted.

if its for sales .. then Georgain would be your best choice.

exactly. That's where you need to start. Get searching for a place that will take you on as an apprentice. It won't be easy and you will probably get paid s***e for a while.

Aaron went to Mohawk for a 1 year course on automotive. He got his apprentice and now goes back to school every year.

Once he's done his license, I hope he goes to the States for the big boys school and gets his superstar license to work some muscle cars. But we'll see.


Automotive School - Clutch - 01-29-2006

St. Clair College in Windsor has a pretty decent Motive Power Course from what I hear, or if you want to get into Automotive engineering/design they have a course in that too. [This is what I took- Mech. Eng. Tech. - Automotive Product Design. ]

Search the web for all of the canadian (or ontario) colleges, as some offer more specific courses than others. ( Windsor is pretty decent for automotive stuff since the big 3 are all here.)

U of Windsor also has Automotive Engineering if your up for some late nights of studying ...( & some BEvERages)...
