The Millwright Mechanical Technician program is recognized by the Ministry of Advanced Education & Skills Development as a co-op/diploma program. Graduates meet the program standards of an Ontario Mechanical Technician, as well as the in-school training of an Industrial Millwright Apprenticeship.

Eligible incoming students are encouraged to register with the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities as program participants and as soon as they start work in an apprenticeable position, they are eligible to register as an apprentice. The training at Lambton College counts toward the in school training requirement for the Millwright Apprenticeship. Students considering Second Career funding are required to contact their representative to receive the most current information regarding apprenticeship options and how it affects funding.

Students who are in good academic standing during the first two terms of the program will be eligible to apply for a four-month co-op job placement as available. A student is considered to be in good academic standing if they have passed all of their courses and have maintained a GPA of 2.5 or greater. Students seeking co-op job placement positions must apply for them and be chosen following an interview process. The college actively pursues companies to participate in the program but cannot guarantee co-op placements for each student.
