What is an apprenticeship?
A youth apprenticeship is an industry driven education and career training program based on recognized industry standards. It is a partnership among business, industry, education, government, parents, and youth apprentices.
Benefits of an apprenticeship
Apprenticeship programs allow students to learn on the job. Apprentices often receive free training while also being paid for their work. There are many apprenticeship programs to choose from, and these programs are growing as there is a shortage of skilled labor workers.
Tuition assistance for NC Apprentices
Students that complete a registered pre-apprenticeship while in high school OR sign up for a registered apprenticeship before high school graduation qualify for FREE college tuition at ANY NC Community College! See Ms. Walker to get involved!
Are you a high school graduate that started the registered apprenticeship process a little later? Apprentices at NC Community Colleges participating in a Registered Apprenticeship Program and are enrolled in Workforce Continuing Education courses as part of their related instruction qualify for the Short-Term Workforce Development Grant.
