Association of Apprentices’ Post

We know that apprenticeships are for everyone: regardless of who they are, where they live, or their age. That’s why we’re dropping the age requirements on our entry-level apprenticeships: making all of our opportunities open to everyone. Whether someone is 16 or 60, we want to use apprenticeships to support them to build meaningful, sustainable, and well paid careers. Learn more about why we’re promoting apprenticeships for everyone this National Apprenticeship Week. https://lnkd.in/er2VkgYH #NAW2024

Since the introduction of the levy, the number of young people starting apprenticeships has been declining. It's one week until our next Time for Change and it's all about helping more young people to access apprenticeships. Join our webinar to look at different approaches being taken to disrupt this pattern and ensure more young people and those from disadvantaged backgrounds can access apprenticeships. https://lnkd.in/ehnRYvbJ #apprenticeships #earlycareers #timeforchange #apprenticeshiplevy

This week is National Apprenticeship Week — a time to celebrate the unique “earn and learn” programs creating clear, debt-free paths to quality jobs with family-sustaining wages, benefits, and opportunities to advance in California and beyond. The James Irvine Foundation is proud to support innovative organizations reimagining apprenticeships to meet both worker and employer needs. One such organization is Love Never Fails, which provides IT pre-apprenticeship programs for survivors of human trafficking, combining technical training with essential wraparound support services. Their approach demonstrates how apprenticeships create a win-win — participants who face significant barriers to employment benefit from access to sustainable, quality careers while employers benefit from a skilled pipeline of workers. Irvine also supports the Northern California Apprentice Network, led by the City and County of San Francisco, in its work to expand access to high-road "new collar" apprenticeships. Their programs actively include workers who have historically been excluded from the labor market, helping close regional equity gaps. With one in three California workers in low-wage jobs, apprenticeships offer a proven way to access well-paying careers that don't require a four-year degree. The future of California's workforce depends on expanding these programs so more people have access to quality jobs and family-sustaining careers. We're grateful to work alongside partners like these who are building a more equitable California economy through innovative apprenticeship programs. #NationalApprenticeshipWeek #WorkforceDevelopment #QualityJobs #California
