Who has the responsibility to terminate an apprenticeship for non-compliance with rules?

The responsibility to terminate an apprenticeship for non-compliance with rules typically falls on the AJATC (Apprenticeship Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee). This committee plays a crucial role in overseeing the apprenticeship program, ensuring that all apprentices adhere to established guidelines and standards.

Since the AJATC is focused on maintaining the integrity and quality of the apprenticeship experience, they have the authority to address issues related to compliance. They assess performance, conduct evaluations, and can take action when an apprentice fails to meet the expected standards or violates program policies.

While other parties, such as the apprentice or the apprentice school, may have roles in monitoring or reporting non-compliance, it is ultimately the AJATC that has the official mandate to decide on the termination process. The school director typically operates within the frameworks set by the AJATC but does not independently hold the authority to terminate apprentices for non-compliance.
