Trades - Apprenticeship in Insulator (Heat and Frost)

This four-year apprenticeship trains students to apply, remove and repair thermal and acoustical insulation on commercial and industrial equipment, working with materials such as calcium silicate, fiberglass and mineral wool. Each of the four 12-month periods includes a minimum of 1,620 hours of on-the-job training and six weeks of classroom instruction. Training is delivered in person at SAIT's Main Campus using block release scheduling, where coursework has a fixed start and completion date. This is a Red Seal endorsed trade, a recognized standard that allows tradespeople to work across Canada. Graduates receive a diploma and journeyperson status through Alberta's Apprenticeship and Industry Training. This program does not accept international applicants. Applicants apply through Alberta's apprenticeship system after meeting the Alberta residency, citizenship, and education requirements for the trade.
