Part II: Gauging Registered Apprenticeship Alignment for Workforce Boards

The Center of Excellence will host Part II: Gauging Registered Apprenticeship Alignment for Workforce Boards about how workforce boards can take steps to align and level up their registered apprenticeship activities on February 29th from 1-2pm ET.

The Center created a draft tool designed primarily to provide local workforce boards with a gauge of potential “levels” of workforce and apprenticeship system alignment. This session is a continuation of walking through the individual levels, with a focus on how local boards have taken next steps to further incorporate registered apprenticeship as a workforce solution for local jobseekers and employers.

Prior attendance is not necessary to attend. Please join us to be a part of this exciting review session and voice your opinion on this new tool!
