Now in it’s seventh year, JABC TechWorks is a technology career conference for high school students. Available both virtually and in-person, JABC TechWorks is a forum for youth to explore technology and technology-related careers and understand the education, skills and mindset needed to ensure they are tech-enabled and qualify for tech-related jobs. Duringthe2021-22 school year, over 5,500 youth in urban, rural and Indigenous communities across B.C. participated in JABC TechWorks. Students had a chance to hear from and connect with companies such as BestBuy, Amazon, Sony Pictures Imageworks, Teck, TELUS, Accenture and so many more.
This school year, JABC is pleased to be offering JABC TechWorks both virtually and in-person. We’re bringing back our in-person experience after a two-year pause with a 400-person one-day event in Surrey, B.C.
Virtual JABC TechWorks will be offered twice as a multi-day conference in the winter and spring, providing students with ample opportunity to explore a variety of career paths.
Jill of All Trades is a day-long event led by female mentors to inspire young women in Grades 9 through 12 to pursue careers in the Skilled Trades. Participants will experience a fun-filled day of practical, in-the-shop sessions.
Be ready to see the BCIT facilities, interact with industry professionals, and join a series of workshops in several disciplines that include among others: Ironworking, Sheet Metal, CNC Machinist, Industrial Instrumentation, Joinery, and Motorcycle Technician.
Participants will be required to wear long pants (no sweatpants, yoga pants, or shorts) and closed toed shoes (runners or sneakers) – no ballet flats or sandals of any kind. BCIT will provide safety glasses and steel toe caps for use in the shops.
Parents/legal guardians are required to complete and submit the media consent and acknowledgement of risk form before the event.
