Glazier Program Outline • Industry Training Authority i

FOREWORD

The revised Glazier Program Outline is intended as a guide for instructors, apprentices, and employers of apprentices, as well as for the use of industry organizations, regulatory bodies, and provincial and federal governments. It reflects updated standards based on the new Glazier Occupational Analysis (2008) and input from the British Columbia industry and instructor subject matter experts.

Practical instruction by demonstration and student participation should be integrated with classroom sessions. Safe working practices, even though not always specified in each operation or topic, are an implied part of the program and should be stressed throughout the apprenticeship.

The Program Outline was prepared with the advice and assistance of the Glazier Governance Committee. It will form the basis for further updating of the British Columbia Glazier Program and other trade-related learning resources.

Practical Exercises are included for those competencies that require a practical component. The intent of including Practical Exercises is to ensure consistency in training across the many training institutions in British Columbia. Their purpose is to reinforce the theory and to provide a mechanism for evaluation of the learner’s ability to apply the theory to practice. It is important that these performances be observable and measureable and that they reflect the skills outlined in the competency as those required of a competent journeyperson. The conditions under which these performances will be observed and measured and the criteria by which the learner will be evaluated must be clear to the learner. The learner must also be given the level of expectation of success.

The performance described in each Practical Exercise is a suggested performance and is not meant to stifle flexibility of delivery. Training providers are welcome to substitute other practical performances that measure similar skills and attainment of the competency. Multiple performances may also be used to replace individual performances where appropriate.

SAFETY ADVISORY Be advised that references to the WorkSafe BC safety regulations contained within these materials do not/may not reflect the most recent Occupational Health and Safety Regulation (the current Standards and Regulation in BC can be obtained on the following website: http://www.worksafebc.com. Please note that it is always the responsibility of any person using these materials to inform him/herself about the Occupational Health and Safety Regulation pertaining to his/her work.
