While many of you may be heading back to high school, others are getting geared up for your first year of college. Still, many may be trying to decide what they’d like to do. May we make a suggestion? How about a career in the trades? It’s a great way to work on projects using your hands, using your creative and physical abilities to build something that will last the tests of time. And, you start by learning more about how to obtain a trade apprenticeship nearest you in Ontario.
Here at the IUPAT, we focus on painting, glazing, drywall, EIFS/stucco, and hazardous materials removal. If any of these union trades sound like what you’re interested in, then let’s chat. When you call our office, you’ll be put in touch with an experienced representative who will talk to you about what it takes to begin a trade apprenticeship, what you’ll need to be successful and how you’ll be compensated during the apprenticeship. Additionally, they’ll speak with you about what comes after the apprenticeship so you can go to work.
If you talk to any IUPAT union member, we’re sure they will tell you great stories about their apprenticeships in Toronto and other parts of Ontario. They’ll also tell you about the rewarding learning experiences and encourage you during your training.
