🌟 Exciting News! 🌟 We are thrilled to announce that we have been awarded a grant from the Biden-Harris Administration’s historic investment in Registered Apprenticeships. This funding is part of a $244 million effort by the Department of Labor to modernize, diversify, and expand the Registered Apprenticeship system across growing U.S. industries. This investment aligns with the administration’s Investing in America agenda, aiming to rebuild the middle class and create opportunities for underrepresented populations in high-demand careers. With nearly $195 million from the Apprenticeship Building America initiative and $49 million through the State Apprenticeship Expansion Formula grants, the impact will be far-reaching and transformative. We are honored to be part of this initiative, which will enable us to: ✅ Expand Registered Apprenticeship programs in key industries. ✅ Provide high-quality training and career pathways. ✅ Support diverse and underserved communities. ✅ Contribute to a skilled workforce that supports President Biden’s Investing in America agenda. This grant will empower us to collaborate with employers, educators, and other stakeholders to launch innovative apprenticeship programs, ensuring equitable pathways for all. Thank you to the Biden-Harris Administration and the Department of Labor for this incredible opportunity. We are excited to continue building a stronger, more inclusive workforce for the future! #Apprenticeship #WorkforceDevelopment #InvestingInAmerica #CareerOpportunities #InclusiveGrowth #YouthApprenticeship https://lnkd.in/gyRHwBJY
