Applicants who meet the screening requirements and are accepted by the GNJ Committee as eligible for apprenticeship are then referred to participating employers who are hiring. If the employer states in writing to the GNJ Committee their intent to hire an eligible applicant referred, that applicant is indentured by the GNJ Committee and hired by the employer.

During the probationary period, the Apprenticeship Agreement may be terminated by either party of the agreement upon written notice to the Registration Agency without stated cause. The probationary period must be reasonable in relation to the full apprenticeship term; with full credit for such period toward completion of apprenticeship. 6A-23.004(h) FAC Continuity The committee is obligated to provide, as far as practical, continuous employment for all its apprentices. A part of that responsibility is shared by you, the apprentice, by reporting to the program administrator to be placed on the out-of-work list. Apprentices looking for work must report to the administrator once a month for the duration that they are out of work. Apprentices on the out-of-work list will be referred to participating employers requesting an apprentice. Apprentices must work for this committee’s approved participating employers. Any work performed for a non-participating employer result in a proposed cancellation from the program and OJT hours worked for non-approved training agents will not be recognized. Term of Apprenticeship The term of apprenticeship shall be 8,000 hours, approximately 48 months, of continuous on the job (OJT) employment (including the probationary period) consistent with training requirements established by industry practice and 576 hours of related training. Hours in related instruction are excluded from those in OJT. Each year, the apprentice must successfully complete a minimum of 2,000 hours in OJT and 144 hours of related training consisting of 72 hours in Web Based Training and 72 hours in Classroom Training.

Monthly OJT Hours Tracking Form (MHTF) Each apprentice must submit a complete and accurate MHTF for each month that s/he is registered as an apprentice, whether the apprentice is working or not, to the class room instructor the 1st class following the end of the month recorded. During the summer class break, an Apprentice Committee Member will pickup the MHTF from the apprentice at their work location, or it may be submitted directly to the Committee. Failure to maintain accurate (which is to include current address and phone number as well as accurate OJT information) and timely MHTFs will result in the apprentice receiving a citation to appear to the next committee meeting. Timely MHTFs are defined as no more than one MHTF received late or missing during a six-month period; January through June, or July through December. MHTFs for the month of December must be received on time in order to progress to the next level.

See 6A-23.004(2)(d) FAC Failure to attend the Related Training as provided through Atlantic Technical Center will not be acceptable due to the limited number of classes per semester. Each apprentice will be allowed only one (1) excused absence per semester/school term and this will need to be made up within two weeks.

Third Violation will result in termination from the apprenticeship and training program. Web Based Training (on-line instruction and simulation) The web based portion of related training material will provide 72 hours of the 144 hours required annually.

For those without internet access, participating employers will provide computer access and allotted time for the apprentice to study at their place of employment during non work hours. All testing of related material will be conducted in a supervised setting. Atlantic Technical Center will be responsible to administer tests and document results for each apprentice. The committee or program coordinator will have access to custom reports documenting students' performance, including class completions, test results, login times, and much more. Class Registration and Tuition (Atlantic Technical Center) Registration for classes, for the Spring and Fall terms, is mandatory. Failure to register will result in a proposed cancellation.

Apprentices that have not qualified for advancement because of insufficient on-the-job training/related training (OJT/RT) hours may be allowed to continue OJT/RT training for up to 30 days under a probationary advancement. Upon completing the applicable requirements listed in policy #2.6, the apprentice will be re evaluated for advancement by the committee.

The hours of work for apprentices shall be the same as those for journeymen in the occupation covered by these standards and in conformity with State and Federal Laws. In assigning work to apprentices, however, due consideration shall be given to the variety of operations necessary to develop their occupational skills. Overtime will not interfere with attendance at related instruction classes. 6A-23.004(2)(n) FAC Failure to Advance Apprentices not re-rated (advanced in the program) will be held at the current period and given a period of time, not to exceed the next scheduled re-rate, to make the necessary accomplishments to qualify for advancement. Failure to make the required accomplishments may result in being held for a maximum of one year from the original hold in period before proposed cancellation. Prior Machining Experience Credit for previous experience or training in the occupation may be allowed, such credit to be stated on the apprenticeship agreement. Apprentices who receive credit for previous experience or training shall be paid, upon entrance, the wage rate of the period to which such credit advances them. The registration agency recognizes that the program sponsor has authority to establish procedures for granting credit to apprentices for previous work and/or training experience. However, to ensure consistency among program sponsors in awarding credits, the registration agency requires that these procedures include the following basic requirements: No more than fifty percent of the apprenticeship program duration can be awarded to an apprentice, i.e., number of months credited to an apprentice for prior work and/or training experience, unless the apprentice is transferring from another registered apprenticeship program in a related trade. All credit granted of more than 1000 hours of on the job training will require an evaluation method which, at a minimum, shall incorporate the following: Consideration of time worked in the specific occupation, or in a related occupation; and Consideration of wages earned by the incoming apprentice. Program sponsors must maintain documentation as to how credit was granted to an apprentice for a period of five (5) years. Documentation must be made available to the registration agency upon request. Individuals who receive credit toward the completion of an apprenticeship program must enter a related instructional program at a level commensurate with the amount of credit awarded. Before an apprentice who was awarded credit for prior work and/or training experience can receive an Apprenticeship Completion Certificate from the State of Florida, he shall be required to demonstrate a mastery of the same instructional material as those apprentices who have completed the entire training program. All program sponsors who want to award credit to an apprentice for a registered apprenticeship program must develop and include procedures for meeting the standards of that program and have these available for review. Exceptions to the above policy may be granted when requested by a program sponsor and a determination is made by the registration agency that such exception does not undermine the quality of apprenticeship training and favors the welfare of the apprentice. 6A-23.004(2)(l) FAC Directory: wp-content -> uploads -> 2015 2015 -> Police Militarization 2015 -> 2015 ihbb championships: hs history Bowl Round 4 – Prelims First Quarter 2015 -> Wrtp/big step · 3841 W.
