SHSM in a nutshell at BDHS
SHSM stands for Specialist High Skills Major
At BDHS, we have 2 kinds of SHSM! Perhaps you’ve already heard about the SHSM in Construction… This year we have the SHSM in Transportation, as well.
SHSM Students specialize in Construction or Transportation oriented courses, no matter if they plan to go on • to work • to an apprenticeship • to college • or to university
Here’s how it works! In Grades 11 and 12, SHSM students take a total of 11 courses that are partly or entirely devoted to their major – either Construction or Transportation.
Of course, Construction and Design Technology courses are compulsory for Construction. In a Transportation SHSM, you need to take 4 Transportation Tech credits. And a Co-op placement at a Construction or Transportation placement is also a must.
Even the other compulsory courses like Math and English have Construction or Transportation components in them
We have also included examples of pathways for the Transportation SHSM…
