apprenticeship
The process for apprenticeship registration has changed in Ontario. Apprenticeship in Ontario is now a partnership between the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities (MTCU) and Ontario College of Trades (OCOT).
An apprenticeship candidate must complete an application form, submit Grade 12 transcripts, be a resident of Ontario, and employed in the horticulture sector.
The candidate and employer must contact the local MTCU Apprenticeship Office to sign a Registered Training Agreement (RTA) with the MTCU.
Once the candidate is enrolled into the Horticultural Technician Apprenticeship Program, the candidate commits to the following:
- Training with the employers for 4,000 to 6,000 hours (two to three years)
- Completing a 12-week basic in-school training session at a community college ($600 tuition fee applies)
- Completing a 12-week (advanced) in-school training session at a community college ($600 tuition fee applies)
- Completing a skills sign-off Training Standard Book of required skills
A number of colleges in Ontario offer programs. To access those colleges, go to horttrades.com/apprenticeship-training.
After registration and the successful completion of the on the job training and the classroom training Level 1 and 2, the candidate is granted a Certificate of Apprenticeship. The apprentice is then able to write the government exam. This is a multiple-choice questionnaire of 125 questions.
The passing mark is 70 percent and the successful candidate obtains a Certificate of Qualification and becomes a journeyperson.
