Urgent – Action Needed for Apprentice Training at Georgian College
September 30. 2025
We have just learned that Georgian College has issued 54 Level 1 Apprentice Training offers (36 Marine/18 Small Engine) for the upcoming Marine & Small Engine Apprenticeship Training (Level 1, Oct 20 to Dec 12, 2025).
Boating Ontario has sent out an urgent notice that as of September 25, only 9 apprentices have registered. If they are unable to reach the minimum class size, this intake risks cancellation!
Our industry cannot afford to lose this critical training stream. If your apprentice has received a Level 1 offer, please help them to register immediately.
What you need to know:
→ Georgian increased capacity to 24 seats (from 18) at the request of the Ministry and Skilled Trades Ontario, but low registrations put this intake at risk.
→ Action is required now to keep this pathway open for our industry.
How you can help:
→ Confirm offer: If your apprentice has a Level 1 offer from Skilled Trades Ontario, confirm they received it.
→ Register now: Use the offer details to register with Georgian College today.
