Ontario's growing economy has created a continuing need
for qualified individuals in all fields, and especially in the
skilled trades.
To meet this demand, the Ontario Ministry of Colleges
and Universities Apprenticeship Program offers
systematic on-the-job training and, related classroom
instruction in many t, ades. •
Depending on the trade, an apprenticeship varies in
length from 2 to•5 years, and apprentices are paid an
increasing percentageof the going rate for fully -qualified
tradespeople. At the conclusion of the training period, an
apprentice will qualify for a Certificate of Apprenticeship
and, where applicable, a Certificate of Qualification.
Your Ontario Government has prepared a special
booklet, "Training for the Skilled Trades", which describes
the apprenticeship program; lists the trades which it
covers and explains how to get into the program.
