Apprenticeship combines on-the-job training under the supervision of a qualified tradesperson and classroom training at a training establishment.

About 80 per cent of an apprentice’s training takes place on the job. The other 20 per cent involves technical training usually provided at or through a post-secondary training establishment, such as a college or union-approved training facility.

What’s in it for me?

• An opportunity to learn and build skills
• Certification in a trade, many of which are in very high demand
• Flexible schedule for work and training
• An opportunity to earn while you learn
