Scholarship gears grad up for the auto trade Lindsay Chung Black Press COURTENAY — Eighteen-year-old Brandon Rumley is working his way toward Red Seal endorsement as an auto service technician. And the Ministry of Education is helping him get there with a $1,000 Secondary School Apprenticeship (SSA) scholarship. Rumley, who graduated from Georges P. Vanier Secondary School last year, is a Level 2 apprentice at Canadian Tire. The only SSA scholarship winner in School District 71 for last year, he says he will use the SSA scholarship to buy tools, “for sure.” SSA is a career program that provides students with the opportunity to begin an apprenticeship while still in high school and to earn credits toward graduation for doing

Photo by Lindsay Chung so. It provides a smoother transition from school to work and a quicker route to certification in a trade — and to the earning power that goes with it, explained Randy Grey, School District 71’s career programs co-ordinator. SSA is open to students in Grade 10-12 who are motivated to gain hands-on training in a designated trade. Students complete
up to 480 hours of work experience that count toward their apprenticeship and course credits. Students are eligible for the SSA scholarship if, after graduation, they continue in the trade for at least five months or accumulate 1,100 hours and maintain a C+ average in Grade 12 courses. At Canadian Tire, Rumley is getting experience in the automotive industry

and learning how a shop is run while doing work such as changing tires and doing oil changes. While Rumley was still in high school, Grey set him up with two weeks of unpaid work experience at Canadian Tire. “It was good because I got to see how the shop was run,” he said. Rumley didn’t have his licence at the time, but after he earned his licence last October, he received a call from Canadian Tire’s former automotive service manager and was offered a job. He worked after school, cleaning up the shop, for about three months until the beginning of February last year. Rumley started
in the ACE IT (Accelerated Credit Enrolment in Industry Training) program and received his Auto Service Tech Level 1 training at Highland Secondary School. Through the ACE IT program, students go to school four days a week and have work experience every Friday, and Rumley spent his Fridays at Canadian Tire until the end of Grade 12. “Once I started SSA, I started getting more into these guys getting me more experience and getting me to do more stuff, and I started doing oil changes,” he said. Rumley feels a lot of job satisfaction in his work at Canadian Tire. “I’m able to think for myself,” he said. “I get a job, and I’m able

Mission call came in time to help with flood Campbell Riverite Jake Deeble has been helping out with the flood efforts in Manitoba, as part of his mission with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. “We spent some time filling sand bags for the general public to come and grab from a big stockpile,” Deeble said, “and spent time in surrounding communities building sand bag walls around houses and cottages. I have been up on the shores of Lake Manitoba, and down along the Assiniboine River banks. I love the work but wish the people didn’t have to deal with their property flooding.”
Jake Deeble poses by a sand bag wall set to hold back the rising flood waters in Manitoba. He described the situation as “Not too bad. But it has high potential to be quite
severe. Some homes were flooded out to save other homes. It’s not as bad as it
could be, but it’s worse than people would like it to be. Lake Manitoba is flooding,

reassigned to Portage La Prairie. Deeble says that while he is loving being in Manitoba, and is appreciating the beauty of the big sky and long sunsets, “It’s not home. It’s made me realize that Campbell River is so great.” He is also enjoying the opportunity of meeting new people, and being able to serve. When asked if he regretted the change in location, he said, “Even though I’m not in the sunshine of California, I am in my home country and I get to see a part of Canada I probably never would have seen. I wouldn’t change anything.”

So is the diversion that runs beside Portage.” Deeble was originally intending to work in the Fresno, California area, but was unable to get a US visa, and so was reassigned to the Winnipeg, Manitoba mission. This mission covers a huge area, taking in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Nunavut and part of Ontario. Deeble started out serving in the lower mainland while the paperwork was being dealt with, and then headed to the Mission Training Centre in Utah. He was then sent to downtown Winnipeg, and has recently been
