What Are Apprenticeships?

Apprenticeships are a smart way to enter well-paying jobs in growing fields, such as  advanced manufacturing, welding and information technology. They're even expanding into other in-demand fields, including accounting, business, and cybersecurity.

How do apprenticeship programs work?

Apprenticeship programs are sponsored by employers, employer groups, and trade associations. The employers provide the on-the-job training while often partnering with local colleges to deliver the classroom instruction.

Classroom work is completed at the same time apprentices are actually working in the field. This allows them to immediately apply the knowledge gained in the classroom to a real-world setting.

Programs range from one to six years. Upon completion of the program, students receive a nationally recognized industry credential validating their proficiency.

As employees of the companies that sponsor their apprenticeship, apprentices receive incremental raises and in many cases, company benefits.
