  • Apprenticeship is a work-based learning program that provides industry-specific training through a combination of hands-on experience and classroom-based instructions. Apprentices earn a fixed stipend while studying and ultimately attain industry credentials.

    Degree apprenticeship programs provide students with a combination of education and skills, develop a novel employer-funded financing model, assist organizations in building their talent pipelines, and assist institutions in integrating employability into their curriculum.

    Students who are interested in doing an apprenticeship program can start with a three-year undergraduate program at a recognized university.
