Introduce the idea of apprenticeships. Ask students if they have ever heard of an apprenticeship. Many may be familiar with the Donald Trump show and that is exactly the concept, although most apprentices are not on TV and do not work for Donald Trump! Explain that an apprentice learns a job and earns money at the same time by working with a skilled expert, who provides hands-on training. In many cases, apprentices also take classroom courses at a community or technical college to deepen their knowledge. Apprenticeships are a great way to begin a highly skilled career.

In addition, if your district offers pre-apprenticeship opportunities for high school students at a local community or technical college or at a regional Skills Center make sure students are aware of these opportunities. In addition, the following web sites will help students and their families learn more about apprenticeship opportunities Washington Department of Labor & Industries Apprenticeship: Information about how to become an apprentice, with a searchable database of apprenticeship programs by region REACH Tacoma: Provides resources for young people in Pierce County Page 2 Rev 12/11

6 The Apprenticeship Advantage...earn while you learn! What is apprenticeship? Apprenticeship is a training program where you earn wages while you learn a skilled profession in a specific field, such as construction, health care, or culinary arts. Apprenticeship combines classroom studies with on-the-job training supervised by a trade professional. Much like a college education, it takes several years to become fully trained in the occupation you choose. Unlike college though, as an apprentice you ll earn while you learn. At first, you ll make less money than skilled workers, but as you progress, you ll get regular raises. Once you ve mastered the craft, you ll receive the same wages as a professional. Why choose apprenticeship? Apprenticeship means real skills and real careers Proven success Today s carpenters, electricians, plumbers, and sheet metal workers were yesterday s apprentices. And tomorrow s manufacturing technicians, educational assistants, and firefighters may be apprenticeship graduates as well. You can find apprenticeship opportunities in most construction trades and in many other occupations. Apprenticeships in new occupations are being added all the time. Proven methods Whatever your field of interest, you will be taught by experienced professionals. You ll take at least 144 hours of related classes each year. And, you ll have a chance to practice your new skills on the job while you are learning. Higher wages Skilled trades pay more than unskilled work. That s why apprenticeships lead to higher wages. According to a survey by the Washington State Workforce Education and Training Coordinating Board, apprenticeship graduates earn an average of $58,000 per year plus benefits. Advancement potential Apprenticeship graduates usually advance more rapidly than other workers, so higher-paying jobs come more quickly. Some apprentices move into supervisory positions within just a few years. Equal opportunity Apprenticeship programs must provide equal opportunity to all who are interested. They are eager for qualified women and minority applicants. Valuable skills credential When you complete your apprenticeship, you ll receive a graduation certificate valid anywhere in the U.S. that demonstrates you have the knowledge and skills needed for successful performance as a professional in that occupation.

7 Here are just a few apprenticeship training programs: Why not get started now? Think about an occupation that makes the most of your special talents, and find out if there s an apprenticeship program in that occupation. You ll need a high-school diploma, GED or equivalent, and basic reading and writing skills. Some programs require specific math training. Contact a Department of Labor & Industries (L&I) Apprenticeship Consultant for assistance. They can give you tips to make the search easier and direct you toward an apprenticeship program that you might want to explore further.
