Webinar Replay: The State of Apprenticeships

In 2019, the U.S. Department of Labor (USDOL) announced plans to expand apprenticeships in the United States, establishing a process for the development of high-quality, industry-recognized programs. They created a new system that paved the way for educational institutions to receive grants when they partner with employers. Fast forward to 2022, and apprenticeships are white-hot. 

In February's Pathways to Employment webinar, our panel of experts shared their knowledge on:

  • The rate of growth for apprenticeships in their area
  • The "why" behind the urgent and timely need for apprentices
  • Ways that apprenticeship stigmas can be broken
  • Best practices for agencies seeking program funding
  • Tips for working with employers to develop programs
  • ...and more!
