Apprenticeship Classroom Training
This program provides classroom training, which represents
approximately 10 to 15 per cent of the training apprentices need to
complete their apprenticeship. The classroom component of an
apprenticeship program usually consists of three levels of formal
instruction based on the Ontario College of Trades’ approved
curriculum. Training delivery agents are required to be approved by
the province to deliver each level of formal instruction in a trade.
