Employers provide about 80-90% of the apprenticeship training in the workplace.
All apprentices attend in-school sessions offered by approved training delivery agents (e.g. colleges, unions) for the remaining 10-20%, which involves classroom instruction on theory.
Once both school and on-the-job components have been satisfied, apprentices will receive a Certificate of Apprenticeship.
For trades with exams, apprentices must pass the exam before they can receive their Certificate of Qualification.

A bridging program is a partnership in Canada between two post-secondary institutions that allows students to transfer college credits from one institution to another.
A bridging program student typically holds a two-year college degree and then bridges to obtain a four-year or graduate degree in two to three years. The skills earned from both a diploma & degree make students very marketable for various career pathways.
Colleges and universities have developed some interesting partnerships in recent years, so keep this in mind as you make plans for post-secondary education.
