Completion and apprenticeship – find out more in February 2010

The topic of completion in apprenticeship can be a complicated issue.

• How is ‘completion’ measured?
• Can it be accurately measured?
• What are some of the challenges apprentices may be facing in trying to complete their apprenticeship program?
• What are the best practices for encouraging apprentices to complete their apprentice training?

All of these questions and more will be discussed at the Canadian Apprenticeship Forum’s upcoming dialogue in February 2010. More details to follow soon.
