Academy of Integrated Trades

 

OUR MISSION IS TO EMPOWER STUDENTS FOR A LIFE OF IMPACT THROUGH AN EXEMPLARY TRADE EDUCATION ROOTED IN CHRIST.

The Academy of Integrated Trades (AIT) is a partnership between International Christian High School (ICHS) and Delaware County Christian School (DC). Our innovative 2+1 program provides specialized trade training during 11th and 12th grades, followed by an optional one-year post-graduate apprenticeship.

Upon graduation, AIT students earn their high school diploma and can either enter an employment agreement with a trade partner or pursue further specialized training. Regardless of their chosen path, students leave AIT fully prepared to lead with integrity.

Note for Applicants: AIT is proud to begin its journey by serving the students of International Christian High School. We plan to make the program available to DC students by Fall 2028.

Equipping students to understand how technologies work and create real-world solutions unlocks pathways to long-term prosperity, transforming futures for generations to come.Ben Brittin
