Thinking of Apprenticeship Pathway?
Ontario
This website put together by the Government of Ontario helps potential apprentices learn more about how to become an apprentice, apprenticeship programs for high school and college students, and the Apprenticeship Incentive Grant for Women. Potential apprentices can also explore Ontario’s skilled trades, search job profiles to learn about a job’s educational requirements, average pay and whether it’s in demand.
Funded by HIEC, a not-for-profit social enterprise, ApprenticeSearch.com seeks to address skills shortages by helping apprentices and the employers who hire them. ApprenticeSearch.com offers a free online job tool that can connect potential apprentices with apprenticeship trade positions in Ontario, as well as descriptions of skilled trades, free resources about apprenticeships, information on skilled trades news and events, and personal support for jobseekers.
This website provides information about the Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program, a program designed for Grade 11 and 12 high school students who want to pursue an apprenticeship. Its website answers frequently asked questions and dispels common myths about apprenticeships.
Designed to guide secondary school educators as well as service delivery managers and employment and training consultants, this document explores the benefits of apprenticeships for students, eligibility requirements, pathways to apprenticeship for high school students, youth apprenticeship programs and the role that secondary schools play in connecting students with apprenticeship opportunities.
