The Registered Apprenticeship data displayed in this resource is derived from several different sources with differing abilities to provide disaggregated data. The 25 federally-administered states and 16 federally-recognized State Apprenticeship Agencies (SAAs) use the Employment and Training Administration's Registered Apprenticeship Partners Information Database System (RAPIDS) to provide individual apprentice and sponsor data. This subset of data is referred to as RAPIDS data and can be disaggregated to provide additional specificity. The federal subset of that data (25 states plus national programs) is known as the Federal Workload. The remaining federally recognized SAAs and the U.S. Military Apprenticeship Program (USMAP) provide limited aggregate data on a quarterly basis that is then combined with RAPIDS data to provide a national data set on high-level metrics (apprentices and programs) but cannot generally be broken out in greater detail beyond the data provided here.

This map presents the full data available on the MLTSD GeoHub, and maps several of the key variables reflected by the Apprenticeship Program of ETD.Apprenticeship is a model of learning that combines on-the-job and classroom-based training for employment in a skilled trade. To become an apprentice, an individual must be 16 years of age, have legal permission to work in Canada, meet the educational requirements for the chosen trade, and have a sponsor in Ontario who is willing to employ and train the individual during their apprenticeship. A sponsor is most often an employer, but can also be a union or trade association, and the sponsor have access to the facilities, people, and equipment needed to train an individual in the trade. It takes between two and five years to complete an apprenticeship, and approximately 85 to 90 per cent of training takes place on-the-job. The remainder is spent in the classroom, which provides the theory to support the practical on-the-job training. The classroom component takes place at a Training Delivery Agent (TDA), which can be a college or a union training centre, and in most trades is undertaken for eight to twelve weeks at a time.In Ontario the skilled trades are regulated by the Ontario College of Trades (OCoT), which includes setting training and certification standards for the skilled trades. At the outset of an apprenticeship the individual signs a training agreement with the Ministry of Labour, Training, and Skills Development (MLTSD) which outlines the conditions of the apprenticeship, and within 90 days of signing the agreement the apprentice must register with OCoT. At the conclusion of the apprenticeship the individual may be required to write a Certificate of Qualification (CoQ) exam to demonstrate his/her knowledge and competency related to the tasks involved with the practice of the trade.About This DatasetThis dataset contains data on apprentices for each of the twenty-six Local Board (LB) areas in Ontario for the 2015/16 fiscal year, based on data provided to Local Boards and Local Employment Planning Councils (LEPC) in June 2016 (see below for details on Local Boards). For each of the data fields below apprentices are distributed across Local Board areas as follows:Number of Certificates of Apprenticeship (CofAs) Issued: Based on postal code of sponsor with whom they completed their training.Number of New Registrations: Based on the postal code of the sponsor with whom they initiated training.Number of Active Apprentices: Based on the postal code of the apprentice’s current or last sponsor.Note that trades with no new registrations in the 2015/16 fiscal year are not listed in this dataset. For a complete list of trades in Ontario please see http://www.collegeoftrades.ca/wp-content/uploads/tradesOntarioTradesCodes_En.pdf.Due to the fact that managing member records and data for journeypersons function was transferred to the Ontario College of Trades in April 2013, this dataset does not contain information regarding Certificates of Qualification or journeypersons.About Local BoardsLocal Boards are independent not-for-profit corporations sponsored by the Ministry of Labour, Training, and Skills Development (MLTSD) to improve the condition of the labour market in their specified region. These organizations are led by business and labour representatives, and include representation from constituencies including educators, trainers, women, Francophones, persons with disabilities, visible minorities, youth, Indigenous community members, and others. For the 2015/16 fiscal year there were twenty-six Local Boards, which collectively covered all of the province of Ontario. The primary role of Local Boards is to help improve the conditions of their local labour market by:engaging communities in a locally-driven process to identify and respond to the key trends, opportunities and priorities that prevail in their local labour markets;facilitating a local planning process where community organizations and institutions agree to initiate and/or implement joint actions to address local labour market issues of common interest; creating opportunities for partnership development activities and projects that respond to more complex and/or pressing local labour market challenges; andorganizing events and undertaking activities that promote the importance of education, training and skills upgrading to youth, parents, employers, employed and unemployed workers, and the public in general. In December 2015, the government of Ontario launched an eighteen-month Local Employment Planning Council pilot program, which established LEPCs in eight regions in the province formerly covered by Local Boards. LEPCs expand on the activities of existing Local Boards, leveraging additional resources and a stronger, more integrated approach to local planning and workforce development to fund community-based projects that support innovative approaches to local labour market issues, provide more accurate and detailed labour market information, and develop detailed knowledge of local service delivery beyond Employment Ontario (EO). Eight existing Local Boards were awarded LEPC contracts that were effective as of January 1st, 2016. As such, from January 1st, 2016 to March 31st, 2016, these eight Local Boards were simultaneously Local Employment Planning Councils. The eight Local Boards awarded contracts were:Durham Workforce AuthorityPeel-Halton Workforce Development GroupWorkforce Development Board - Peterborough, Kawartha Lakes, Northumberland, HaliburtonOttawa Integrated Local Labour Market PlanningFar Northeast Training BoardNorth Superior Workforce Planning BoardElgin Middlesex Oxford Workforce Planning & Development BoardWorkforce Windsor-EssexMLTSD has provided Local Boards and LEPCs with demographic and outcome data for clients of Employment Ontario (EO) programs delivered by service providers across the province on an annual basis since June 2013. This was done to assist Local Boards in understanding local labour market conditions. These datasets may be used to facilitate and inform evidence-based discussions about local service issues – gaps, overlaps and under-served populations - with EO service providers and other organizations as appropriate to the local context.Data on the following EO programs for the 2015/16 fiscal year was made available to Local Boards and LEPCs in June 2016: Employment Services (ES)Literacy and Basic Skills (LBS)Second Career (SC) ApprenticeshipThis dataset contains the 2015/16 apprenticeship data that was sent to Local Boards and LEPCs. Datasets covering past fiscal years will be released in the future.Notes and DefinitionsSponsor – A sponsor is defined as a person who has entered into a registered training agreement under which the person is required to ensure that an individual is provided with the training required as part of an apprenticeship program established by the College of Ontario. The person can be an individual, corporation, partnership, sole proprietorship, association or any other organization or entity.Journeyperson – A certified Journeyperson is recognized as a qualified and skilled person in a trade and is entitled to the wages and benefits associated with that trade. A Journeyperson is allowed to train and act as a mentor to a registered apprentice.OCoT – The Ontario College of Trades was developed under the Ontario College of Trades and Apprenticeship Act, 2009 as the industry-driven governing body for the province’s apprenticeship and skilled trades system and assumed responsibilities including issuing Certificates of Qualifications (CofQs) and the registration of journeypersons in 2013. The College is also responsible for managing OCoT member records and data.CofQs – Certificate of Qualifications are awarded to candidates who have successfully completed all required training and certification examination; the certificate indicates their ability to practice their trade in Ontario.

CofAs – Certificates of Apprenticeship are awarded to candidates who have successfully completed a formal on-the-job and in-school training program in an apprenticeable trade in Ontario. For those trades where there is no examination in place, the certificate indicates their ability to practice their trade in Ontario.Data published: Feb 1, 2017Publisher: Ministry of Labour, Training, and Skills Development (MLTSD)Update frequency: Yearly Geographical coverage: Ontario

This table provides quarterly data on the number of apprenticeship learning programmes started in work-based learning (WBL) in Wales. The data includes WBL that is delivered by further education institutions and also WBL delivered by other training providers. 2024/25 data is calculated using the month 12 freeze of the Lifelong Learning Wales record (LLWR). This freeze was produced on the 24th July 2025. New work-based learning contract arrangements came into effect on 1st August 2021. This resulted in the transfer of around 4,800 existing apprentices to new providers with new programme records created on the Lifelong Learning Wales Record. New programme records resulting from a transfer are usually included in the statistics on apprenticeship starts with the exception of the target measure. In 2021/22 Q1, however, we excluded the records as so many learners were transferred that the statistics would have presented a misleading picture of apprenticeship starts in that quarter had they been left in. From 2016/17 onwards all data in the table is calculated using the month 5 freeze of the Lifelong Learning Wales Record (LLWR). This freeze is produced close to the end of the December after the academic year in question finishes. For example, the freeze containing the 2016/17 data was taken close to the end of December 2017. Prior to 2016/17 data in the table was calculated using the month 7 freeze of the Lifelong Learning Wales Record (LLWR). This freeze was produced close to the end of the February after the academic year in question finishes. For example, the freeze containing the 2015/16 data was taken close to the end of February 2017. Data in the table is presented on an academic year basis, which runs from 1st August - 31st July. All figures are rounded to the nearest multiple of 5. Any values greater than 0 and less than 5 have been suppressed and replaced with an asterisk (*).

These tables contain statistical information on Canadian registered trade completers gathered between three and seven years after completing their education. The three tables in the dataset focus on the registered trade completers’ satisfaction with their current job security, their satisfaction with their earnings from their current job, and their pursuit of further training or education after completion. The data was extracted by Statistics Canada and modified by Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC). Statistical information on registered trade completers is reported at the national level by trade field of study.

Database consists of notices filed by welfare plans that provide apprenticeship and/or training benefits (ATP).

This data is published in accordance with the Public Sector Apprenticeship Target. Public Bodies employing more than 250 people are required to have regard to the target of 2.3% of employees being new starting apprentices.
