- A two year internship with in-class learning and on-site training
- Mentorship by skilled technicians
- Applied learning in shops, labs and workplace
Program Description
The MNO Building Systems Technical Advisor Internship Program is designed to develop a workforce of highly skilled building inspection and energy conservation advisors that will be leaders in the current trends influencing housing.
Participants will learn about:
- construction materials and techniques, energy efficiencies, heating systems, and plumbing related to residential housing
- project management
- enhanced client services
- energy audits
Unique features of this two-year program include an emphasis on Métis culture, cross-cultural communication, and applied research in energy efficiencies and green technologies.
The internship will have a framework of competencies that participants must demonstrate and they will be required to complete an energy-based research project before the completion.
The intent is that, upon successful completion of the BSTAIP, the graduate will be positioned for full-time employment with MNO, in related industry fields or other provincial housing providers.
