Registered Apprenticeship
Registered Apprenticeship (RA) is an occupation-specific training model that creates benefits for Employers and Apprentices. On-the-job training and related technical instruction meet the needs of apprentices as they work to become competent in the occupation. As their skills increase, employers reap the benefits of that highly skilled employee. The marriage of the “earn while you learn” model with the technical instruction creates loyal, engaged employees. As an Apprentice, you create your career path; as an employer, you gain competitive edge in a global Economy.
