Industrial Mechanic (Millwright) Apprenticeship Ontario College Certificate
ObjectivesReceive in-school component of millwright training. As a registered millwright apprentice, most of your training will be done on the job. You will take your in-school training at Conestoga College's Guelph Campus. Two variations of the in-school training are offered. They differ in format, but not in content. The first arrangement is offered in the traditional format of three, eight-week segments (full-time) over the 3-4 years of apprenticeship. The second is a day release format. Apprentices are in school one day per week for 40 weeks each year over a three-year period.
