National Apprenticeship Week

November 8-14, 2020

Did you know that the Apprenticeship for Child Development Specialist (ACDS) Program was the first early childhood apprenticeship program in the nation? Since the program began in 1989, it has been recognized nationally and locally for its’ innovation and contribution in training early childhood workers throughout WV.

National Apprenticeship Week (NAW) is a nationwide celebration of apprenticeship programs and their contribution to creating a highly skilled workforce. Apprenticeship programs use a blend of coursework and on-the-job training to create graduates that are both knowledgeable in their field and have work experience. Partners of apprenticeship programs, including business leaders, career seekers, labor and educational institutions use NAW to acknowledge apprenticeship programs throughout the country.

Please join us in recognizing and acknowledging the contributions made to the workforce by apprenticeship programs nationwide.

Thank you for supporting our apprenticeship program!
