Merit Ontario for Apprenticeship

Merit Ontario for Apprenticeship is revolutionising the pathway to apprenticeships in Ontario's construction sector. As a Group Sponsor, the organisation offers a collaborative solution that ensures apprentices and employers receive the support needed to make apprenticeship training accessible and affordable. Merit Ontario acts as an intermediate between the Ministry of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills Development, Skilled Trades Ontario, apprentices and employers, taking away the burden of administration and guiding apprentices through their transition from new employee to licensed journeyperson. This allows both apprentices and employers to focus on on-the-job training, health and safety, and operations.

Merit Ontario for Apprenticeship is dedicated to boosting the skilled trades workforce by increasing the number of apprentices who achieve their Certificate of Qualification. The organisation provides comprehensive support services through expertly trained staff available over the phone, online, or in person from their office. Each apprentice has access to a dedicated Program Manager who guides them through their entire journey with the organisation. For employers, Merit Ontario excels at helping manage apprentices, navigating government grants, handling administrative tasks, reducing confusion and assisting with barriers to make the apprenticeship journey easier for all parties involved.

Merit Ontario for Apprenticeship operates from its headquarters in Mississauga, Ontario, serving the construction industry across the province. The organisation is experienced in helping job seekers looking for career opportunities in the trades connect with potential employers. By combining administrative support, government grant navigation, and personalised guidance, Merit Ontario for Apprenticeship has established itself as a trusted partner for employers seeking to build their skilled workforce and for apprentices pursuing rewarding careers in construction.
