An ironworker welds, burns, rivets, drills, fits and fabricates structural shapes and plates in the erection of structural steel for buildings and bridges. Duties include rigging, placing machinery and the detailing, placing and tying of reinforcing steel. The apprenticeship process requires time on the job supplemented by in-school training. An ironworker apprentice must complete a three-year program including 4,260 workplace hours and 300 in-school hours of training in addition to a mandatory six-month Entry Level Technical Training. The in-school training is taken in a five week block, for each of 2 years. After completion of training, a passing grade on exams will result in the B.C. Certificate of Apprenticeship, the B.C. Certificate of Qualification, and the Interprovincial Standard Endorsement, also known as Red Seal.
