Ontario College of Trades


The Ontario College of Trades is one of the key recommendations in the Compulsory Certification Review (Armstrong Report), released May 22, 2008.

This new arms-length governance institution would help modernize Ontario's skilled trades system to make it more responsive to economic needs, enhance the quality of apprenticeship training and expand the system.

Ontario Labour Relations Board Chair Kevin Whitaker was appointed Implementation Advisor for the College.
