Youth Apprenticeships
Youth apprenticeships are structured training programs that combine on-the-job work experience with classroom learning, designed for young people typically between ages 16 and 24. Participants work under the guidance of experienced professionals while also taking coursework related to their chosen career field. This approach helps develop practical skills, industry knowledge, and work readiness, making youth more competitive in the job market. Youth apprenticeships benefit students by providing paid work experience and educational credits, and benefit employers by cultivating a skilled, motivated future workforce.
