Released on August 27, 2012
The Board of Directors of the Saskatchewan Apprenticeship and Trade Certification Commission announced today that Jeff Ritter has been named Chief Executive Officer of the Commission, effective September 1, 2012.
Ritter has extensive experience in strategy development, finance and organizational performance management in Saskatchewan's public service. He is currently responsible for delivering PRIME, the Saskatchewan Ministry of the Economy Process Renewal and Infrastructure Management Enhancement project, which is a multi-year, multi-project, multi-million dollar program to renew the ministry's oil and gas business processes and supporting technology.
"The SATCC has experienced exponential growth in the number of apprentices registered and trained in the past five years and we anticipate continued demand for skilled tradespeople to meet Saskatchewan's labour market development needs," SATCC Board of Directors Chair Garry Kot said. "I look forward to working closely with Mr. Ritter to assess training needs and deliver apprenticeship training that meets the demands of Saskatchewan's growing economy."
The SATCC Board of Directors established a board sub-committee to conduct the national search for a CEO. The board was pleased to offer the position to Ritter, who calls Saskatchewan home.
"An extensive and thorough search process was undertaken," SATCC Board of Directors Vice-Chair Doug Christie said. "The board is pleased to continue its record of strong leadership at the commission with the appointment of Jeff Ritter. Mr. Ritter's skills and experience in designing, developing, implementing and administering programs will lead to continued success and advancement of the apprenticeship program."
"This is an exciting time for apprenticeship in Saskatchewan," SATCC incoming CEO Jeff Ritter said. "I look forward to working with the Board of Directors, senior management, staff of the SATCC, our partners and stakeholders to continue building a more efficient, effective and adaptable organization that delivers outstanding service to our clients."
Ritter will succeed current CEO, Joe Black who has led the SATCC during a period of exceptional growth and innovation over the past five years by generating greater awareness of the apprenticeship system. Black will facilitate the transition over the next several months.
The SATCC manages and administers the apprenticeship system within Saskatchewan. Apprenticeship is a workplace based mentorship training model which combines workplace training and technical training in Saskatchewan's 47 designated trades and 23 sub-trades. Currently, SATCC serves more than 10,000 apprentices in the skilled trades.
