It’s a Problem…
• TOO MANY PEOPLE ENTER APPRENTICESHIP 10 YEARS
AFTER HIGH SCHOOL
• TOO MANY ADULTS (FAMILY MEMBERS AND
PROFESSIONALS) FOSTER A NEGATIVE IMPRESSION OF THE
TRADES
• TOO MANY YOUNG PEOPLE BUY INTO THAT PREJUDICE AND
LOOK DOWN ON PHYSICAL WORK
• TOO MANY WORKERS ARE GETTING TOO OLD TO CONTINUE
TO DO THE JOBS THAT ARE NEEDED TO KEEP THE COUNTRY
RUNNING
• ECONOMIC RECOVERY WILL REQUIRE MORE APPRENTICES
IN BOTH TRADITIONAL AND EMERGING OCCUPATIONS
How Apprenticeship Can Impact the
Publicly Funded Workforce System
ADULT MEASURES
• ENTERED
EMPLOYMENT
• EMPLOYMENT
RETENTION
• AVERAGE EARNINGS
YOUTH MEASURES
• PLACED IN
EMPLOYMENT OR
EDUCATION
• ATTAINED DEGREE OR
CERTIFICATE
• LITERACY AND
NUMERACY GAINS
