What is a Registered Apprenticeship and Can It Work in Your Agency?
Thursday, November 21, 11:00am - 12:30pm
About the Webinar
There is a lot of momentum around Registered Apprenticeships in the public sector, but it isn’t always clear how they work and whether they are a viable long-term solution for local governments. In this webinar, attendees will learn how non-traditional registered apprenticeships can help local governments hire for positions that are in high demand and notoriously difficult to fill.
The presentation will provide an overview of what a non-traditional apprenticeship is, how it works, and how this earn-and-learn model can help local government employers build a skilled and diverse workforce pipeline. Attendees will hear directly from local governments that are already successfully implementing these programs and get a first look at ILG’s new exclusive pilot program for cities, counties, and special districts to test out registered apprenticeships in hard-to-fill roles.
