The purpose of this enactment is to establish a process for
co-operation between all stakeholders to establish standards for
apprenticeship, institutional training and certification for prescribed
trades and to secure the recognition of the standards across Canada. The
standards will recognize the labour market and the need for a
school-to-work transition.

|
|
The Minister is given the power to establish a national
apprenticeship and training committee (NATAC) for each prescribed
trade with representatives from provinces and labour, industry and
instructional stakeholders. The NATAC will advise the Minister with
respect to the trade it represents.
|
|
|
|
There will be an annual report to Parliament on the functions of the
NATACs, which will be referred to a committee.
