Second, you and your consultant will complete a Work Process Schedule. This is a detailed outline of what your apprentice will learn on the job.
Third, you’ll work together on a classroom-based learning plan that complements the apprentice’s on-the-job training. We call this Related Technical Instruction.
Fourth and finally, you’ll officially register your apprenticeship program by completing just four forms and uploading them to your account in our RAPIDS database. RAPIDS is also where you register and keep track of the apprentices you bring on board.
With these four simple steps, your Registered Apprenticeship Program will be up and running. When you’re ready to start identifying potential apprenticeship candidates, we can help with that, too.
Tell us about your business, and we’ll match you with a consultant.
