Drumheller Valley Secondary School is one of 10 Alberta schools to receive hand tool and equipment grants to enhance its CTS programs.
DEWALT and Stanley Tools have partnered with Skills Canada and Skills Canada Alberta to gift ten Alberta high schools with a collection hand and power tools that will be used at the Provincial Skills Canada Competition and Skills Canada National Competition. Each school will receive packages of tools and equipment valued at approximately $12,000.
DVSS was a recipient of the national grant.
The Stanley and DEWALT Tool Enhancement Grant will allow students to gain more in-depth CTS Program experience by learning specialized skills and techniques. Adding the new equipment ensures that schools have the tools and resources they need to help students make the link between the classroom and a career in trades and technology.
DEWALT and Stanley Tools are the official hand and power tool sponsors for the 2018 Provincial Skills Canada Competition, providing tools to Skills Canada Alberta that will be used in 17 of the 45 competition areas.
