An apprenticeship program is a hands-on training opportunity that allows students to learn a skilled trade or profession while working and earning money. Apprentices split their time between on-the-job training with experienced professionals and classroom instruction that builds technical knowledge.
These programs are a great option for students who want to enter the workforce after high school or gain practical experience while earning industry credentials. Apprenticeships often lead directly to full-time employment, with many employers covering the cost of training and certifications.
Through an apprenticeship, students can:
Gain real-world experience in their chosen career field
Earn a paycheck while they learn
Receive industry-recognized credentials
Build valuable connections with employers
Apprenticeships are available in many fields โ such as construction, healthcare, information technology, advanced manufacturing, and more.
