What are
Plans of Training, and how are they developed?
A
Provincial Plan of Apprenticeship Training details the
full scope of learning for a particular occupation,
including both technical training competencies and
industry experiences necessary to write an interprovincial
(IP) examination (and complete the requirements for Red
Seal Certification), or to write a provincial examination.
Provincial
Plans of Training are developed by the Provincial
Apprenticeship and Certification Board.
The
Provincial Apprenticeship and Certification Board
initially designates a new occupation for apprenticeship
training, and then establishes an Advisory Committee to
develop a Provincial Plan of Training according to
National Occupational Analyses or separately-developed
skills profiles.
Once
developed, Plans of Training are reviewed on a regular
basis to ensure that curriculum remains current and meets
industry standards. The Provincial Apprenticeship and
Certification Board requests input on revisions from
educational agencies involved in the delivery of training.
All
newly developed or revised Plans of Training, upon
approval by the Board, are distributed to educational
agencies for delivery an implementation date is
established by the Department for the newly developed or
revised Plan of Training.
Each
Plan of Training contains the following information:
- entrance requirements;
- apprenticeship term;
- duration of in-school and
on-the-job training;
- course content;
- course designation as entry
level or advanced level;
- Provincial occupation title; and
- tool and equipment required to
support the delivery of the program (under development)
