Commemorate National Apprenticeship Week

10th annual event honors the contributions of registered apprenticeships in building a strong and robust union workforce. 

This week is National Apprenticeship Week, a nationwide celebration where employers, industry representatives, labor organizations, community-based organizations, workforce partners, educational institutions, and Federal, State, and Local government agencies host events to showcase the successes and value of Registered Apprenticeships. This commemoration pays tribute to the work of registered apprenticeships in strengthening our economy by developing a highly skilled workforce to meet industry needs, creating pathways for career seekers to catapult into good jobs, and advancing racial and gender equity.  

There are many resources available to learn more about the value of registered apprenticeships. You can review the NAW factsheet, view the NAW sizzle reel, or visit the NAW website.
