Which entity will not approve a promotion if the apprentice fails to measure up in all categories?

• A. The local AJATC committee
• B. The school board
• C. The employer
• D. The training coordinator

Answer: (A)

Promotions in an apprenticeship are governed by the local Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee (AJATC). This committee reviews an apprentice’s performance across all required areas—on-the-job work, related instruction, safety, attendance, and conduct. If the apprentice doesn’t meet every criterion, the AJATC will not approve moving to the next journey level. The school board handles educational aspects, and the employer provides on-the-job training, but final progression decisions come from the AJATC. The training coordinator uses the system to monitor progress but does not grant advancement on their own.
