Description:
In partnership with CESA 6, the Youth Apprenticeship (YA) program integrates school-based and work-based learning. Students accepted into an approved Youth Apprenticeship program will continue taking classes at their high school while working as an apprentice at a participating business. Students will be enrolled in a technical class related to their youth apprenticeship program. These classes can be offered at either their high school or off campus.
Youth Apprenticeship Program Areas: Agriculture/Food/ Natural Resources, Finance, Health Services, Hospitality/Lodging/Tourism, Information Technology, Manufacturing, Arts/AV/Technology/Communications, STEM, Transportation/Distribution/Logistics, Architecture/Construction, Marketing
Students interested in YA will need to complete the Youth Apprenticeship Student Registration Form. The YA Consultant will work with the student, employer and school. Students will be expected to meet apprenticeship benchmarks and the YA Consultant and Employer will grade the student on each benchmark. Quarterly meetings will occur with students, parents, employers, school coordiantor and YA Consultant.
