This apprenticeship program provides sheet metal worker apprentices with the trade skills and theory necessary to design, assemble and install shop fabricated parts and fulfills the in-class requirements of the apprenticeship program.
Growth in the construction business and increasing emphasis on complete environmental control ensure a steady demand for sheet metal workers. Modern buildings require up-to-date heating, cooling and ventilation systems, many of which depend upon air movement to satisfy design conditions. Fans and connected sheet metal duct work are the heart of such systems.
The Sheet Metal trade is a compulsory skilled trade in Ontario and requires a Certificate of Qualification to work in Ontario. For employment outside of Ontario, a sheet metal worker must have a Red Seal Endorsement (RSE).
