Apprenticeship
An apprentice is someone who learns a skilled trade on the job, under the direction of more experienced workers. Apprentices also complete classroom instruction as a part of their training. Apprentices are employees, and earn a salary while they learn a skilled trade.
Job Literacy and Basic Skills (LBS)
Each LBS program differs in terms of the range of programming offered, from basic up to a grade 12 equivalency level and in terms of the number of hours of instruction offered per week. Programs provide different types of service delivery, such as one-on-one tutoring, small groups or a classroom setting.
