APPRENTICESHIP READINESS PROGRAM

Do YOU want to work in a fulfilling career where you can earn a living wage and learn new skills?

WIST Apprenticeship Readiness Program (ARP) has been developed specifically to help women succeed in the construction skilled trades. Our 16-week program will kick-start your career in construction by introducing you to the fundamentals & basic skills of our industry, through a combination of classroom and hands-on activities.

Graduates of a WIST ARP are guaranteed an interview with one of our sponsoring Building Trades Unions, to join their Apprenticeship Program, where they can continue their on-the-job training while getting paid.

WE WANT YOU TO SUCCEED
