Paying for your studies
Each level is a one-time payment of $700 CAD by card, with 12 months of access. There is no subscription and no enrolment fee.
- Ask your employer. Many shops pay for training that makes their people better at the work. Employers can request a group quote for a crew.
- Government apprentice supports such as the Canada Apprentice Loan and EI during technical training are tied to registered apprenticeship technical training. Apex is independent online study, not registered technical training, so do not plan on those programs covering Apex fees. Check your own eligibility on canada.ca.
For Employers

Apex covers the knowledge, theory and exam-preparation side of the Reinforcing Ironworker trade as independent online study. It does not replace registered technical training, the on-the-job hours your apprenticeship requires, or the practical testing required for certification.
