About These Documents

Island Career Academy prepares every student for success, not just in the classroom, but in the workplace and throughout the registration process. The documents on this page are official program materials designed to give prospective and enrolled students a complete, transparent picture of what each program involves before they begin.

Course Hours sheets provide a detailed, course-by-course breakdown of instructional time for each diploma program. They list every module, the number of in-class hours, practicum or clinical placement hours, and any required certification components. These documents are particularly useful when comparing programs, verifying credentials with a potential employer, or applying for student funding through organizations such as Nova Scotia Student Assistance or Employment Nova Scotia.

Job Outlook sheets summarize regional labour market information for Cape Breton and Nova Scotia, giving students a realistic sense of employment demand, key industries, and occupational pathways following graduation. Each sheet draws on current data to help you make an informed decision about your career direction.

Policies & Regulations documents, including the full Island Career Academy Rules and Regulations, outline the rights and responsibilities of every student. All students are expected to have read and understood these policies before their program start date. Reviewing these materials ahead of time ensures a smooth, respectful learning environment for everyone.

Each document is available as semantic HTML as well as its source PDF. If your admissions advisor has asked you to review a specific document before your enrollment meeting, you can find it in the appropriate section above. If you have questions about any of the content, our admissions team is happy to walk you through it; simply call us or drop by the campus at 721 Alexandra St., Sydney, NS.

Enrolled students should keep copies of their Course Hours sheet and the Rules and Regulations document for their own records throughout their program.
