APPRENTICESHIP TRAINING

Apprenticeship training begins after you finish your program at Holland College and are working fulltime with a suitable employer. When you are working with a suitable employer, you will register as an apprentice, and Apprenticeship PEI will give you credit for the hours earned and block exams passed while you were at Holland College. Each trade has a certain number of hours that an apprentice must complete before he or she can take block training and move to up to the next level. Once you have completed the required number of blocks and worked the required number of hours for your trade, you can earn your Inter-provincial Red Seal by completing an exam. An Inter-provincial Red Seal, which is the mark of excellence for your chosen trade and the designation most employers will ask for, gives you the ability to work anywhere in Canada. The most successful path to an Inter-provincial Red Seal begins with a full-time Holland College program.

Look for these icons on the program description pages throughout this publication. They give you additional information about the program and its career pathways and alert you to graduate opportunities.

D E G R E E PAT H WAY S

A great blend of college and university! Degree path-ways such as articulation agreements and transfer credits give you the opportunity to begin your studies at one institution and finish at another.

Holland College has more than 150 agreements with universities and other post-secondary institutions across Canada, in the U.S. and overseas. There are a variety of joint applied degree programs and 2+2 programs that enable you to earn a university degree in as little as two years after you have your Holland College diploma, along with other agreements that can lead to certifications.

For more information about apprenticeship training in PEI, visit apprenticeship.pe.ca. This information pertains to PEI only. For apprenticeship in other provinces, visit the apprenticeship branch of the provincial government for that province.

ACCREDITED PROGRAM

Accredited programs are recognized across Canada as having met national academic standards. If you are planning to work elsewhere in Canada, a diploma from a nationally accredited program will ensure that you receive full credit for your training regardless of where you settle.

D I S TA N C E E D U C AT I O N

Programs that offer a distance education option give students who cannot attend classes on campus the opportunity to continue their education via the Internet, off-site at your home or office, or by a combination of delivery methods such as a blend of classroom time and online learning. If you are unable to relocate to attend classes or are working full-time but would still like to upgrade your skills, these programs may be just what you need.
