Employers can register youth apprentices. These individuals are 16 to 19 years of age and employed part or full-time in a designated trade.
Youth apprentices follow the same training program as a regular apprentice. However, when an individual registers as a youth apprentice, they are exempted from the registration fee.
To register a youth apprentice, contact the Youth Apprenticeship Coordinator at our Halifax office.
To learn more about how you can support a youth apprentice, check out the Workit website.
