Considerations to Admission into FAST:

• Students starting in grade 10 must be enrolled in Technological Education courses for the F.A.S.T. program and in the associated SHSM program for the remaining years
• Students in grade 11 or 12 will be participating in the SHSM program for that sector and taking senior Technological Education courses related to the SHSM sector as well as Cooperative Education (preferably) in grade 11. If they are entering in grade 12 and have not taken Cooperative Education they must be scheduled for Cooperative Education
