Apprentice program a success, says Picco

Last week, Ed Picco, the education minister, told the legislature that since the creation of Nunavut, 48 apprentices have received their apprenticeship certificates, 84 apprentices or trade qualifiers have received their qualification certificates, and 31 have obtained their inter-provincial red seal.

The red seal, said Picco, is “a distinguished accomplishment, recognized across the country.”

Picco said 116 apprentices are now registered in Nunavut.
