The NC Community College System works with the state’s Department of Commerce and leading industries to provide apprenticeship programs that cover on-the-job training and related instruction.
Helping North Carolina Meet Workforce Needs Across the State
Together, we are equipping a better, brighter workforce in North Carolina. Hands-on training helps our students learn new skills, earn higher wages, and gain more confidence in the workplace. Whether you lead instruction within ApprenticeshipNC or you tell others about the value of the program, you are helping us provide proven programs that build talent pipelines that will last for generations.
How It Works
Step One
An employer contacts ApprenticeshipNC to learn more about how apprenticeship can help them elevate their business.
Step Two
We build a program with their local community college that includes instruction that’s relevant to the industry and position. Instruction can include classroom learning, correspondence, or individual instructional programs.
Step Three
ApprenticeshipNC and the employer review the program and agree on Customized Standards of Apprenticeship.
Step Four
The program is registered at the local community college and can begin enrolling registered and non-registered apprentices.
Step Five
The employer onboards an apprentice and officially launches a program.
