Apprenticeships
Apprenticeship training produces skilled workers through a combination of structured on-the-job training with a skilled trainer and trade-specific classroom instruction. Programs are conducted by employers, groups of employers and jointly by employers and unions.
Apprentices are full-time paid employees who produce high-quality work while they learn skills that enhance their employment prospects. They are paid on a graduated scale; this assures that salary reflects the degree of skill achieved.
