The Apprenticeship and Certification Board, as well as industry working groups, periodically engage with industry stakeholders, including active apprentices, journeypersons, employers, training providers and associations, to gain insight into the apprenticeship and certification system.

When there is an open engagement, those interested in participating may do so here.
