Virtual Office Hours - Supportive Services for Registered Apprenticeship

The Center of Excellence is convening workforce, education, and industry stakeholders to discuss how to better align the workforce system for the purpose of more effectively scaling registered apprenticeship programming. During this live Office Hours session, we will be discussing how supportive services and training can be WIOA funded components of registered apprenticeship.

Local Workforce Development Board leadership, frontline staff and registered apprenticeship program sponsors will hear how their peers are offering services to potential apprentices such as on-the-job training, transportation, and childcare. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and share their insights on providing WIOA funded services to those transitioning into registered apprenticeship programs.
