Students – A Targeted Path to Success
What is a Youth Apprenticeship?
Any student—regardless of future plans—can benefit from an apprenticeship. It’s a powerful model of education that reveals multiple options to careers and higher education. Youth Apprenticeship (YA) is a 1 or 2-year program that gives juniors and seniors in high school the chance to explore a career area of interest. Students spend part of their school day earning credit and wages while they gain valuable industry experience under the guidance of a local business mentor.
How Do I Get Involved With Youth Apprenticeship?
Students can start applying in the spring semester for positions that begin the summer before their junior year. Businesses select the apprentices that are the best fit and once hired, apprentices spend part of their week learning at school and park of the week learning on the job. We accept enrollment from those who may already have a position or are looking for an opprotunity.
