"I’ve always wanted to be a skilled trade person but I tried so hard without success to find an employer who is willing to sponsor someone like me with no experience to be an apprentice. Fortunately, I learned about the CPAC plumbing pre-apprenticeship program and joined it. The program has everything I need to start my apprenticeship – knowledgeable instructors, program staff, health and safety training, plumbing tools, more importantly the connections to employers through placement.  Thanks to the program I’ve finally become a plumbing apprentice and on the track to be a real plumber in the future."
