Trade certification for an electronic technician - consumer products is mandatory in Alberta and available, but voluntary, in the rest of the provinces / territories except Quebec.

As a qualified electronics technician - consumer products, you may obtain interprovincial (Red Seal) trade certification that provides you with job mobility throughout the country.
