Registered Apprenticeship

Supporting States' Efforts

To Create Highly-Skilled Talent Pipelines

 

Since the signing of the Executive Order on Expanding Apprenticeships in the United States in June 2017, employers have hired over 710,000 apprentices across the country. Combining experiential learning with classroom instruction provides a pathway to highly-skilled and credentialed careers for individuals, while providing employers with an opportunity to cultivate the talent they need.

 

Apprenticeships allow individuals to enter the workforce, earn wages, and obtain specialized knowledge and training that provide a pathway to a career with growth potential. Providers are able to reap huge benefits as well. Facing dwindling numbers of appropriately-skilled workers, employers are given the opportunity to create the workforce they need by connecting education with the modern workplace. Unions and other trade organizations are able to ensure their numbers stay high, and educational institutions will discover a student population not previously open to them.

Streamlining Case Management

While Meeting the Needs of Employers and Individuals

 

In response to a renewed focus on apprenticeship programs, Geographic Solutions has developed an Apprenticeship Module to monitor and track Registered Apprenticeships (RA), Industry-Recognized Apprenticeship Programs (IRAP), and other programs that incorporate on-the-job training and instruction. The Apprenticeship Module serves as a case management conduit between individuals, providers, and agency staff.
