ATCD is seeking people who are Red Seal Certified and interested in giving back to their trade; helping to maintain high quality apprenticeship standards; helping apprentices gain certification, mobility and flexibility through apprenticeship training; and lending their expertise and enthusiasm to their trade. Specifically, we need:
PROVINCIAL TRADE ADVISORY COMMITTEE MEMBERS (PTAC)
PTAC members provide their expert knowledge and guidance to the Provincial Apprenticeship and Certification Board (PACB) on matters pertaining to their trade, including:
- reviewing and developing curriculum standards, training tool and equipment lists, and apprenticeship logbooks;
- validating Provincial/Atlantic/Interprovincial Examinations;
- validating Atlantic and National Occupational Standards;
- other issues as requested by the PACB.
PROGRAM ACCREDITATION TEAM MEMBERS
Program Accreditation is an independent audit of trade training programs to ensure they meet established standards and produce competent graduates. Accreditation team members review:
- lesson plans and student work to ensure educational standards are met;
- the site facilities to confirm that they meet accreditation standards;
- tools and expendable materials to verify that students have satisfactory “hands-on” learning experiences; and equipment to ensure it is sufficient for the appropriate hours of practical training each student requires.
EXAMINATION COMMITTEE MEMBERS
An Examination Committee assists in the development and validation of provincial level examinations. For some trades (hairstylist, welder, machinist and cook) they also assist in the design and administration of practical examinations to assess an individual’s practical, hands-on skills in a broad cross section of the occupation.
IF INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING IN A COMMITTEE, PLEASE COMPLETE THIS APPLICATION.
