Pre-Apprenticeship training is an opportunity to help people interested in the trades gain the skills needed to enter the apprenticeship system. It is designed to help with essential resources and support to develop trade-specific knowledge, job skills and work experience necessary to start a career in the skilled trades. The Ministry of Labour, Training and Skills Development is investing 24 million in pre-apprenticeship training across the province in 2021. St. Clair College is pleased to announce we have confirmation of the following programs.
Please continue to monitor the St. Clair College website for future Pre-Apprenticeship funding announcements.
