WORKER EQUITY INITIATIVE RESOURCES
Apprenticeships prepare workers for jobs and meet the needs of business for a highly-skilled workforce. By using apprenticeship as a work-based strategy, the workforce system can increase worker skills, meet employer needs, and enhance performance outcomes. Apprenticeships can provide benefits such as customized training, increased knowledge, enhanced employee retention, a safer workplace, a stable and reliable pipeline of qualified workers, and a systematic approach to training. Apprenticeships may also provide hands-on career training, an education, a career, or a national credential. Source: US Department of Labor
