How to apply to the Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program (OYAP) — and autofill it with my-id.ca
Apply to OYAP without retyping the student's details
The Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program lets high school students earn co-op credits in a skilled trade — and the application repeats the same student and school details as other school forms. This guide is an example of storing them once in my-id.ca.
