Start a registered apprenticeship program
The Details
Overview
Registered apprenticeship can be used across a wide range of industries and occupations, from healthcare and manufacturing to information technology and finance. More than 1,000 occupations are recognized as apprenticeship eligible by the U.S. Department of Labor.
The Division of Apprentice Standards (DAS) provides technical assistance to help you determine whether registered apprenticeship is right for your organization and guides you through developing and registering a program in Massachusetts.
How to start
Attend an information session
Attend an online information session for an introduction to registered apprenticeship and pre-apprenticeship. You’ll learn about the apprenticeship model, basic program requirements, and the process for developing a program in Massachusetts.
Employer interest form
Submit an employer interest form to connect one-on-one with an Apprenticeship Liaison. Your liaison will discuss your organization’s workforce and training needs and help you explore how registered apprenticeship could work for your business, including potential occupations and program options.
Manage Your Account
Once your program is registered, your organization becomes an apprenticeship sponsor and is responsible for managing the program through the Massachusetts Apprenticeship Portal and complying with all applicable state and federal requirements.
