Grow Your Workforce. Build Your Future.

The Registered Apprenticeship Program is a proven work-based training model that combines related classroom instruction with structured, on-the-job training. Apprentices typically work 30–40 hours per week while receiving part-time classroom instruction through Coastal Pines Technical College.

For employers, apprenticeships provide an opportunity to grow your own talent while building a skilled, motivated, and qualified workforce. Employers can use apprenticeship programs to recruit and develop new employees, strengthen retention, and provide current employees with opportunities to expand their skills and advance their careers.
