On-the-Job Training & Apprenticeships

Registered apprenticeships are jobs where workers “earn and learn.”

While working on the job, employees receive one-on-one full-time training from a skilled craftsperson as well as related classroom instruction. An apprentice is “sponsored” by an employer or association and is paid according to a progressive pay scale. Apprenticeships typically run 2 – 5 years depending on the program.
