2021-2022 Call for Proposal
The ministry's Pre-Apprenticeship Training Program supports the Skilled Trades Strategy by encouraging new entrants to participate in technical and employability training needed to be job ready at no-cost, while addressing skilled trade shortages in high demand trades.
Pre-Apprenticeship Training proposals must focus on trades, sectors and/or geographic areas experiencing a skills shortage or a high demand. The proposals should also seek to empower workers and job seekers who face higher barriers of entry, and enhance pathways into meaningful and gainful employment, particularly for youth (including youth at risk), women, Indigenous peoples, people of colour, LGBTQI2s+ and members of at-risk and/or marginalized communities.
Proponents are invited to submit proposals to deliver the Pre-Apprenticeship Training Program in Ontario. Proponents must complete and submit the application form, before the closing date in order to be considered for funding under the Pre-Apprenticeship Training Program.
