Program details
Overview
Coast Mountain College's Parts and Warehousing Foundation program is a 20-week, full-time program offered at the Terrace campus, leading to an ITA Certificate of Completion, Level 1 Technical Training. The program is organized into six courses covering warehouse operations, workplace safety, communications, material handling, and information technology as they apply to the parts and warehousing trade. Students learn the practical tasks of ordering, receiving, storing, and tracking inventory, maintaining accurate records, and processing purchases for parts and accessories used in the automotive, marine, and general warehousing sectors. To graduate, students must pass the ITA Certification of Qualification exam with a score of at least 70 percent. Admission requires Grade 12 standing or mature student status, along with specified English and mathematics prerequisites. The program suits students with no prior trade background seeking direct entry into parts and warehousing work; graduates earn 300 work-based training hours that count toward the related apprenticeship pathway.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Parts and Warehousing Foundation admission requires Grade 12 graduation or Mature Student status, four credits of English at the Grade 10 level or equivalent, and Workplace Mathematics 10 (MWPM-10/WPM 10) or higher. To earn the credential, students must sit the Industry Training Authority's Certification of Qualification exam and score at least 70%. The program page states no test-based English proficiency requirement of its own. Per Coast Mountain College's general admissions page, English proficiency is required of every applicant regardless of citizenship, met by senior secondary graduation with English 12 in an English-speaking country or an approved test — IELTS Academic, TOEFL iBT, PTE Academic, CAEL, or Duolingo English Test — at the band set for this program's tier. Applicants apply through Education Planner BC and should confirm the checklist with an Educational Advisor.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Coast Mountain College runs one common application calendar across its campuses rather than a single date per programme. Domestic applicants: for the 2026-27 academic year, applications opened 1 October 2026; the final day to apply is 24 December 2026 for Winter (January 2027) entry, 23 April 2027 for Spring/Summer 2027, and 30 August 2027 for Fall 2027. International applicants share the same opening date but face earlier cut-offs: 1 October 2026 for Winter, 1 February 2027 for Spring/Summer, and 1 June 2027 for Fall, and some high-demand programmes may close sooner. Trades and other varying-start programmes are judged against their own start dates (international due three months, domestic one week, before start), and continuous-intake programmes accept applications year-round. No single closing date exists beyond these cut-offs. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
