What is Registered Apprenticeship?
It’s a proven approach to training your current and future workforce. Whether you are struggling with recruiting people with the skills you need or transferring the knowledge of your current experts to the next generation, Registered Apprenticeship is a cost-effective solution that combines structured on-the-job learning with classroom instruction.
With Registered Apprenticeship you can build a talent pipeline, mold future employees to your own culture and values, upskill incumbent workers, and ensure that they gain the technical skills relevant to your business.
Most employers, regardless of industry, see a return on investment of 50% or higher with high completion rates and five-year retention exceeding 90%.

What is a Group Program?
Group programs make it easier for businesses to start Registered Apprenticeships. A Group Program could be sponsored by a community college, industry association, or a community-based organization.
Employers participating in a Group Program don’t have to register their own program which saves time and complexity. They also get the benefit of their sponsors’ expertise and collaboration with peer businesses.
Group Sponsored programs are the “easy button” for Registered Apprenticeship.
