Question

The JATC is permitted to extend an apprentice's probation beyond the original hours.

Answer 1

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

True.

We use the following document Local Apprnticeship And Training Standards  For The Electrical Joint Apprenticeship Training Committee.

On the section "TIME-BASED OCCUPATION" says: "The time-based approach measures skill acquisition through the individual  apprentice’s completion of at least 2,000 hours of on-the-job learning as described in a work process schedule".

Section V: - Term of Apprenticeship

MINIMUM – 180 HOURS PER  YEAR/LOCAL JATC MAY INCREASE AS DEEMED NECESSARY

And as we can see is approved to extend the probation with more than the established hours.
