Up here in Canada, each province(state) has their own journeyman certification. A Red Seal certification is recognized accross the whole country.

panaboro; the intent of a challange is to test what you already know. Not sure if studying at this point will help.

thanks Rich, I just think that maybe some of the questionnaire will be about some code from Canada Standard official or codebooks.

So what has changed in the last ten years would be my question. It was considered a mandatory apprenticeship and in BC the first year the best I could do in challenging anything.... it was off trades school I went. I am surprised!!!!! a challenge option is available

I stand corrected.I just got off the phone with the provincial training authority in BC .Providing you have a minimum of 10830 documented hours in the trade, meet certain criteria(see link). All info provided will be reviewed. Since this is a inter provincial certification, all provinces I assume would have the same standard of acceptance.
Good luck with it.
