Foundation Programs
Foundation Programs are a type of pre-apprenticeship program that provides trainees with the basic knowledge and skills needed for entry into a particular occupation. In most cases, trainees receive technical credit toward level one of the apprentice program. A minimal amount of work-based hours is earned as these programs are mainly delivered in a classroom or shop setting.
