The Workplace Apprenticeship Program (PAMT) aims to pair experienced workers (journeypersons) with less experienced co-workers (apprentices) within the same company to facilitate skill transfer through structured, hands-on training. Eligible activities include structured on-the-job training under the supervision of a qualified journeyperson, with the goal of obtaining a certificate of professional qualification or attestation of competency.
