Electric Motor Systems Technician Trade being Removed from Red Seal Program

March 10, 2020

In November 2019, the CCDA reached consensus on a decision to remove the Red Seal status of the Electric Motor Systems Technician trade. This decision was made following a two-year review period and was based on a number of indicators, including low usage of the trade’s Red Seal products across Canada over several years.

Please note that the inclusion of a trade in the Red Seal Program is separate from any provincial or territorial decision around designating that trade. All Red Seal examinations will be deactivated as of June 1, 2020, after which Red Seal endorsements will no longer be issued.
