Objectifs du programme

Elevator mechanics install, rebuild, modify, repair and maintain mechanized conveyor systems. These systems are made up of devices and accessories such as passenger and freight elevators, escalators, moving sidewalks, suspended scaffolding, dumbwaiters, moving stage sets, ski lifts and other similar devices generally used to transport people, objects or equipment. Installing a mechanized conveyor system involves connecting the electrical wiring. Elevator mechanics work in the four sectors of the construction industry (residential, institutional, commercial and industrial), as well as in civil engineering and roadworks. They also work outside the construction sector.

Préalables fonctionnels

A person who has reached the age of 18 can be admitted to a program of study leading to a Diploma of vocational studies (DVS) based on functional prerequisites. These prerequisites, in place for those aged at least 18 years at the start date declared for the vocational training program, are: successful completion of the general development test (GDT) and obtaining and passing the tests relative to the specific prerequisites in the language of instruction and mathematics, if applicable.

This table indicates the new course codes for common core basic education (CCBE) and diversified basic education (DBE) required for the specific prerequisites in language of instruction and mathematics for the targeted program of study. In the cases where the new course codes for the CCBE and the DBE are in progressive implementation, the old codes are indicated in parenthesis and are still valid. The equivalent course codes in basic education in the youth sector are also indicated in the table. When a DVS does not require any specific prerequisites in language of instruction or in mathematics, a (-) will be displayed in the appropriate field. Please note that the functional prerequisites do not apply to attestation of vocational specialty (AVS) programs.
