Apprenticeship and Trades

In Saskatchewan, there are two options for apprenticeship training:

Option 1) apprenticeship which consists of working with an employer first and then going back to school

Option 2) pre-employment which consists of the individual going to school first and then seeking employment

SIAST and Regional Colleges offer pre-employment programming for training in the trades.
