Improving Pass Rates and Learning Outcomes for International Union of Operating Engineers (IUOE) Apprentices

Building on the existing tools and resources, the project will expand, build, and test a suite of new interactive online learning modules, including ‘how to use the tool’ modules, test anxiety, exam preparation (question strategy), etc. that focus on Red Seal preparation through a series of learning modules, creation of new videos, expanded block training tutoring worksheets and assessments, and access to tutoring support services that better support success for Operating Engineer apprentice members. This project is being funded by ESDC; the Canadian Apprenticeship Forum is the project lead, SkillPlan is supporting the development and implementation of the online tools, and SRDC is designing, implementing, and tabulating the survey results.
