In Canada, apprenticeships tend to be formalized for craft trades and technician level qualifications. At the completion of the provincial exam, they may write the Provincial Standard exam. British Columbia is one province that uses these exams as the provincial exam. This means a qualification for the province will satisfy the whole country. The inter-provincial exam questions are agreed upon by all provinces of the time. At the time there were only four provinces, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Upper Canada (now Ontario), and Lower Canada (now Quebec).{{citation needed|date=October 2024}}

In Canada, each [[Provinces and territories of Canada|province]] has its own apprenticeship program, which may be the only route into jobs within [[compulsory trade]]s.{{citation needed|date=October 2024}}

Organisations such as the [[Canadian Council of Directors of Apprenticeship]] and [[Employment and Social Development Canada]] help to oversee the programmes.{{citation needed|date=October 2024}}
