Apprenticeships are a flexible training strategy that gives an employer the opportunity to strengthen and build their workforce by developing a tailored high-quality pipeline. This strategy combines on-the-job training (OJT) and related classroom instruction in which workers learn practical and theoretical aspects of an occupation. We call this the “learn-while-you-earn” model.
The goal for apprenticeship programs is to provide workers with a set of skills that meet the specific needs of local employers using a flexible learning approach.
