Youth Apprenticeships provide a unique opportunity to start preparing for a career while still in high school. One or Two-year Youth Apprenticeship placements combine academic education, occupational instruction, and work-based learning from a local employer. Students will be awarded a Youth Apprenticeship competency certificate by the Department of Workforce Development upon successful completion of the program curriculum. Students are also awarded high school elective credit for hours worked.
