There are two ways the program works:
Non-Registered Apprenticeship

referrals from West AlabamaWorks for potential apprentices
and potentially tap into funding.
Registered Apprenticeship
A Registered Apprenticeship gives referrals for qualified
apprentices plus helps businesses identify additional funding
opportunities.

INDUSTRY BENEFITS
Strong industry benefits are wide-ranging. They recognize
industry commitment to quality through workforce growth.
Depending on how your Apprenticeship program is structured,
participating employers may be eligible to receive funding or
possible tax credits through nationally recognized resources.
The Apprenticeship program gives employers the opportunity
to build structured, consistent training programs that develop
reliable workforce performance meeting both organization
and industry standards.
Industry-driven design is at the core of any apprenticeship
program. Individual businesses and consortiums of businesses
sponsor Apprenticeships and provide needed input to the
design of the training curriculum.
