  • “Introduction to Trades” courses;
  • A level of apprenticeship training;
  • Cost-share - Upgrader training for tradespeople with full trade time;
  • Job coaching for currently registered apprentices;
  • Non-trade specific preparation courses for apprentices prior to apprenticeship training; and,
  • Projects resulting in a social benefit to the community.

The intake will open Monday, February 2, 2026.
