Empowerment through education
The Adult Training Facility (ATF) at CCATC is a Technical, Vocational, and Educational Training Centre that offers three separate vocational training programs for adults with mild intellectual disabilities. The programs are roughly two to three years in length and when students finish they are equipped with the skills needed to gain employment in woodworking, sewing & crafts, or culinary arts.
Students in the woodworking program learn how to saw, sand, and construct a vast array of products from wood. The students are instructed on workshop safety and how to properly operate the necessary tools to build high-quality wooden products.
Students in the sewing and crafts program express themselves through the visual arts while also gaining practical skills. Through various projects, the students gain a wide range of valuable skills as they create jewelry, bags, pillows, and more.
The culinary arts program teaches students how to conduct themselves professionally in a kitchen environment. The curriculum includes both classroom courses and practical kitchen experiences in which students prepare meals while learning proper sanitation and health standards.
