Saskatchewan Youth Apprenticeship Industry Scholarship Program The SATCC, with its partners in industry, initiated the Saskatchewan Youth Apprenticeship (SYA) Industry Scholarship Program. The Program profiles skilled trades as first choice careers to high school students. It encourages students to participate in the SYA Program and to pursue apprenticeship or other post-secondary training in a designated apprenticeship trade after graduation. In June 2011, 40 industry scholarships valued at $1,000 each were awarded to high school graduates who completed the SYA Program. To qualify, the student must have completed high school and hold a completed SYA passport. In order to redeem the scholarship, the graduate must be a registered apprentice for at least one year or have completed one year of post-secondary training in a designated skilled trade.
