PURPOSE OF THIS GUIDE
The Industrial Electrician (IE) Toolkit provides important information about the program.
It is intended to be a quick start and provide an overview of the roles and responsibilities
of the Human Resources Department, Apprentice, Assessor and Supervisor. (It is recognized
that not every industrial workplace may employ supervisors and in some cases the Assessor
may be the supervisor of the Apprentice).
The Toolkit in conjunction with the Apprentice Logbook provides information to develop
the Apprentice.
Each section of the Toolkit can be removed as required and distributed to the participants
of Apprentice development.
An electronic version of this document has been provided on the CD included with this Toolkit.

HUMAN RESOURCES
The purpose of this Toolkit is to clarify your assistance in the development of an Industrial
Electrician Apprentice.
Industry Training Authority (ITA)
ITA is the provincial government agency that governs and manages BCs industry
training system.
Resource Training Organization (RTO)
RTO was established in 2007 to oversee the management and development of Apprenticeship
training for the resource sector in BC.
History
The Theory and Workplace Competency Standards that make up the Industrial Electrician
program were developed through extensive consultation with a broad cross section of
stakeholders in BCs heavy industry sectors mining and smelting, oil and gas, pulp and
paper, solid wood processing, shipbuilding and repair.

Development of this program of competency standards
has been led by the HITAC/Labour Industrial Electrical
Apprenticeship Development Committee who commenced
their work in 2005. This committee commissioned the
development of a BC Occupational Analysis for Electricians
working in industry based upon the National Occupational
Analysis of Industrial Electrician (2004). These competency
standards are based upon the 2005 BC Industrial Electrician
Competency Profle, the product of the 2005 BC Occupational
Analysis.
Development of these competency standards continued
through 2006 with extensive support of industry, unions
and both Federal Government Departments and Provincial
Government agencies as well as through the dedicated
participation of a group of 18 electrician Subject Matter
Experts (SMEs) working in industry who participated in
eight development workshops held in Vancouver from
2005 through to 2007.
Introduction
The Industrial Electrician Apprenticeship is diferent from
any other Apprenticeship that you have been involved with.
The development of the Apprentice is competency-based
as well as time-based. This diference means that during
the development of the Apprentice there will be points
of progress that will be met by an assessment of the
Apprentices abilities, not just time in the trade. These
assessments must be completed by a registered Assessor
and must be completed in a prescribed manner. The results
are recorded in the Apprentice Logbook (available for
download from www.rtobc.com).

Judging Competence
As the Assessor, you have to be confident that the Apprentice
has met the standards set out in the assessment guides.
You evaluate the evidence supplied by the Apprentice, and
using your knowledge and expertise in the industry, assess
the evidence against the standards set by the competency
standards. You need to be able to show clearly how the
evidence supports your assessment decision. Are you satisfied
the Apprentice can complete the task:
safely
repeatedly
without assistance
according to regulatory requirements
according to the assessment guide
to best industry practice
within acceptable industry timeframes

WORKPLACE COMPETENCY ASSESSMENT
There are 23 compulsory work place competencies in Levels
1 4 of the IE Apprenticeship program. Each competency is
assigned a certain number of credits. The credit rating and
task details for each competency can be found in the
Apprentice Logbook. The credit weighting for each
competency is a reflection of the amount of time required
for the Apprentice to gather evidence of competency.
Level 1 total 19 credits (9 competencies)
The credit total for Levels 1 4 is 107.
In addition, the Apprentice must achieve credits from a list
of competencies in the Advanced (i.e. elective) Section A
and Section B.
Section A 25 credits (from a list of 20 competencies)
Section B 10 credits (from a list of 37 competencies)

INDEPENDENT WORKPLACE ASSESSORS
In an effort to offer an Assessor to Industrial Electrician Apprentices in companies that either
do not have an on-site Assessor or their on-site Assessor is unavailable we have designed a new
web based referral system for Independent Workplace Assessors (IWA).
These Assessors will be qualified through the two-day course that is offered to all qualified
tradesmen. Upon successful completion of this course the Assessor will be eligible to place
his/her name on a referral network for assignment by the RTO to assess Industrial Electrician
Apprentices at their place of work.
The Independent Workplace Assessor (IWA) database will be maintained and controlled by
the RTO staff. Assessor qualifications will be kept current in order to remain in the database.
An employer will be able to access the IWA page through the RTO website (www.rtobc.com)
and will be able to select the geographic location that best applies to his/her location. A form
for submission to the RTO will be generated. The employer will complete the form and submit
it to the RTO staff. The staff will then contact IWA willing to work in that geographic location. it to the RTO staff. The staff will then contact IWA willing to work in that geographic location. it to the RTO staff. The staff will then contact IWA willing to work in that geographic location.

ASSESSOR CODE OF CONDUCT
Q: What must the Assessor consider in terms of confidentiality
and related factors?
A: In most cases the Assessor and the Apprentice will be
employees of the same company, and both would fall under
the rules set out by their employer, thus the resolution of
questions or disputes regarding the behaviour of either
party would be the responsibility of the employer. If
necessary, disputes may be referred to ITA for moderation
under existing ITA policy (P A3005).
The Assessor is expected to maintain confidentiality in terms
of releasing information or speaking publicly about the status
or performance of an Apprentice.
The Assessor will take all reasonable precautions regarding
the storage of hard copy data relating to the status
or performance of the Apprentice and will take similar
precautions to prevent the distribution of electronic files
containing Apprentice information by email or storage of data containing Apprentice information by email or storage of data
in shared drives. Any electronic records kept by the Assessor in shared drives. Any electronic records kept by the Assessor
should be password protected.

History
stakeholders in BCs heavy industry sectors mining and smelting, oil and gas, pulp and paper,
solid wood processing, shipbuilding and repair.
Development of this program of competency standards has been led by the HITAC/Labour
Industrial Electrical Apprenticeship Development Committee who commenced their work
in 2005. This committee commissioned the development of a BC Occupational Analysis for
Electricians working in industry based upon the National Occupational Analysis of Industrial
Electrician (2004). These competency standards are based upon the 2005 BC Industrial
Electrician Competency Profile, the product of the 2005 BC Occupational Analysis.
Development of these competency standards continued through 2006 with extensive support
of industry, unions and both Federal Government Departments and Provincial Government

INDUSTRIAL ELECTRICIAN APPRENTICES SUPERVISOR
The purpose of this Toolkit is to clarify your assistance in the development of an Industrial
Electrician Apprentice.
The Industrial Electrician Apprenticeship is different from any other Apprenticeship that
you have been involved with. It is a competency based, not just a time based, development
program. This difference means that during the development of the Apprentice there will be
points of progress that will be met by an assessment of the Apprentices abilities, not his time
in the trade. These assessments must be completed by a registered Assessor and must

As you first meet with the Apprentice and discuss the Logbook with him/her, it would be
a great opportunity to discuss the function of the Logbook and the function of the Assessor;
and what you the supervisor can do for the Apprentice.

Specifically the Supervisor can:
Affect the experiences that go into making up the evidence for an assessment.
Assign the tasks that help develop the learning points for of each competency.
Review the development of the Apprentice.
Review the forms prior to ordering an assessment. It is the Apprentices responsibility to
accumulate, record, maintain and supply evidence so that an assessment can be completed.
Discuss in advance the timing of the assessments with the Apprentice. This will help insure
that the training stays on line for the successful completion of his/her level. This will allow the
supervisor to organize the assessments when he/she feels the Apprentice can be successful.
Designate an Assessor for the Apprentice. This may be a journeyman electrician on-site
that has completed the IE Assessors course, or it may be an off-site person (Independent
Workplace Assessor) who you contract through the RTO.

History
stakeholders in BCs heavy industry sectors mining and smelting, oil and gas, pulp and paper,
solid wood processing and shipbuilding and repair.
Development of this program of competency standards has been led by the HITAC/Labour
Industrial Electrical Apprenticeship Development Committee who commenced their work
in 2005. This committee commissioned the development of a BC Occupational Analysis for
Electricians working in industry based upon the National Occupational Analysis of Industrial
Electrician (2004). These competency standards are based upon the 2005 BC Industrial
Electrician Competency Profile, the product of the 2005 BC Occupational Analysis.
Development of these competency standards continued through 2006 with extensive support
of industry, unions and both Federal Government Departments and Provincial Government
