Hiring an apprentice: the incentive explainer

Hiring a first-year apprentice in a Red Seal trade? The federal government has announced incentives of up to $10,000 for eligible small and medium-sized employers. Details and eligibility are on Canada.ca. Our board is independent and not affiliated with any government.

The Build Canada Apprenticeship Service hasn't opened for applications yet. Canada.ca says it is launching later this fall.
