What counts

SkilledTradesBC sets the apprenticeship hours. Your sponsor reports them in the Portal. Crane-specific time is logged in SkillRecord Passport for BC Crane Safety. A ticket without the hours is not the trade. Provisional operators still work under a written supervision plan while those hours accumulate.

Hours are not the exam

The papers are separate: Level B, Level 1 SLE, Level 2 SLE, Red Seal IP, practical. Practice the written work in REDTC. Do not confuse logged time with being ready for the sitting.
