Youth Apprenticeship (YA)

Youth Apprenticeship Opportunities are dependent upon Student Interest, Approved Youth Apprenticeship Opportunities, and approval by Wright Technical Center's Work Based Learning Coordinators. Opportunities vary depending on local business industry needs and partnerships. These opportunities are updated regularly and are available to any students in our member districts.

Students interested in a Youth Apprenticeship should complete the Student Interest Form. Once information from the student is received by completing the form, Wright Technical Center Work Based Learning Coordinators will review the information, work to place/confirm students into approved partnerships with area business partners, and then communicate with counselor to approve registration for youth apprenticeship. Parents, and Businesses are encouraged to Contact Us with any questions regarding Youth Apprenticeship.
