Steamfitter Terrazzo, tile and marble setter Q: Only some trades seem to be listed in this proposed regulation related to the establishment of apprenticeship programs. Why aren’t all trades included don’t they all have apprenticeship – programs? A: All trades in Ontario have apprenticeship programs include workplace-based training and experience and, where applicable, classroom-based training and instruction. Details of the apprenticeship programs for each trade are set out in policies, as well as training and curriculum standards. The Board is required by the Ontario College of Trades and Apprenticeship Act, 2009 (OCTAA) to make regulations prescribing wage rates, ratios and training hours for apprentices in certain trades. The College is proposing to mirror the wage rates, ratios and training hours currently set out under the Trades Qualification and Apprenticeship Act, 1990 (TQAA) and is also proposing to set out whether or not overtime will be included in training hours for some trades, again as currently set out in the TQAA. There are no similar regulations for trades named under the Apprenticeship and Certification Act, 1998 (ACA): that is why no other trades are included in this proposed regulation. Other trades will have the requirements of their apprenticeship program set out in policy documents such as training and curriculum standards as is now the case for those trades. – The following table lists the TQAA trades that have trade-specific regulations. Please note that some trades are named differently under OCTAA (they are outlined in the table below).
