The Automotive Service Technician program is a four-year apprenticeship, with Saskatchewan Polytechnic delivering the required in-school technical training portion under contract to the Saskatchewan Apprenticeship and Trade Certification Commission (SATCC). Apprentices are already employed in the trade and gain most of their skills through on-the-job training under a certified journeyperson, supplemented by in-school technical training delivered at the Moose Jaw and Saskatoon campuses, covering theory, testing and hands-on experience. Each year of the program includes eight weeks of in-school technical training. To enter the apprenticeship, an individual signs a contract of apprenticeship with a sponsoring employer, which is then registered with SATCC; SATCC schedules all apprenticeship training. Upon successful completion of all four levels of technical training and the required on-the-job hours, apprentices are eligible to write the examination to become a certified journeyperson in the Automotive Service Technician trade.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Entry is through an apprenticeship contract rather than a standard program application. To register, an applicant must be a permanent resident or Canadian citizen, have the proper educational requirements, and work in the Automotive Service Technician trade as an employee, employer or self-employed operator. The signed apprenticeship contract is registered with the Saskatchewan Apprenticeship and Trade Certification Commission (SATCC), which schedules all technical training, delivered at the Moose Jaw and Saskatoon campuses.
