Yes, the Canadian Red Seal is recognized in the USA. The Red Seal Program, which sets common standards to assess the skills of tradespersons across Canada, has a reciprocity agreement with the United States, allowing for recognition of Red Seal certification. This information is stated in the "Frequently Asked Questions" section of the official Red Seal website (https://www.red-seal.ca/about/pr.4gr....) under the question "Is my Red Seal recognized internationally?". Additionally, the National Occupational Analysis (NOA) of Canada confirms that a Red Seal endorsement is recognized in the United States. This information can be found on the NOA website (http://www.hrsdc.gc.ca/eng/workplaces...) under the question "What is the value of a Red Seal endorsement?".
