The Apprenticeship Training Division will assess certificates or licenses that are granted by a regulatory authority if they are in a trade or occupation that is similar in scope to any of the designated trades in Nova Scotia.
To begin, clearly define what role an apprentice could play within your business and what skills you are looking for in a new employee. It is also important to identify a journeyperson who is capable of training new staff to your standards and business requirements.
The Apprenticeship Training and Examination Schedule is posted on the website home page around June of each year. It contains information about registration deadlines and available training.
Apprenticeship is and always has been about mentoring and passing along trade knowledge and skills from journeyperson to apprentice. As an apprentice, you work under the supervision of a journeyperson in the workplace. Here are some tips for getting the most from your mentoring experience with a journeyperson.
Examinations are normally written at scheduled times. There is generally at least one examination sitting per month in Halifax and Sydney, and less frequently in other locations. The sittings are usually on a Saturday, and begin at 9:30 am (see the Examination Schedule).
