Curriculum Standard
Industrial Mechanic
(Millwright)
Level 3
Date: 2005
Please Note: Apprenticeship Training and Curriculum Standards were developed by the Ministry of
Training, Colleges and Universities (MTCU). As of April 8th, 2013, the Ontario College of Trades
(College) has become responsible for the development and maintenance of these standards. The
College is carrying over existing standards without any changes.
However, because the Apprenticeship Training and Curriculum Standards documents were
developed under either the Trades Qualification and Apprenticeship Act (TQAA) or the
Apprenticeship and Certification Act, 1998 (ACA), the definitions contained in these documents may
no longer be accurate and may not be reflective of the Ontario College of Trades and Apprenticeship
Act, 2009 (OCTAA) as the new trades legislation in the province. The College will update these
definitions in the future.
Meanwhile, please refer to the College’s website (http://www.collegeoftrades.ca) for the most
accurate and up-to-date information about the College. For information on OCTAA and its
regulations, please visit: http://www.collegeoftrades.ca/about/legislation-and-regulations

Reportable Subjects:
Introduction
The curriculum has been developed in keeping with the prescribed training
standards of Workplace Training Branch, Ministry of Training, Colleges and
Universities. The curriculum will allow for easy adaptation to the current
reporting structures for the respective program phases and for alternate delivery
formats.
For easy reference, a time allocation has been included for each respective unit,
along with the Theory/Practical breakdown for the delivery of the performance
outcomes.
The curriculum has also been designed to give the instructor every reasonable
opportunity for flexibility and innovation, without unnecessary deviation from the
course requirements (as determined by the Industry and as prescribed in the
regulation for the trades). Since the scope of the prescribed curriculum is quite
extensive, the apprentices will be expected to reinforce the acquired knowledge
through regular, independent out-of-classroom assignments. In keeping with
sound teaching methodologies, the curriculum has been presented in a
chronological sequence. However, the actual application of the sequence may
differ somewhat between colleges because of scheduling, staffing and utilisation
of facilities.
Page 1
To ensure that successful students will be able to satisfy the individual outcomes
according to the performance criteria, specific times have been allocated in the
respective areas to allow for some application enhancement. It is of utmost
importance that all application assignments relate to prescribed experiences
only. Time constraints will not permit engaging students in irrelevant tasks of
limited learning benefits that are unrelated to the curriculum outcomes.
