program including 6,480 workplace hours and<br />
720 in-school hours of training completed in four<br />
levels, each for six weeks. After completion and<br />
achievement of a passing grade, the apprentice<br />
will hold the BC Certifi<strong>ca</strong>te of Apprenticeship,<br />
BC Certifi<strong>ca</strong>te of Qualifi<strong>ca</strong>tion, and the<br />
Interprovincial Standard Endorsement also known<br />
