- Supplemental Education - Apprentices are provided supplemental classroom education based on the employers' unique training needs to ensure quality and success.
- Diversity - Programs are designed to reflect the communities in which they operate through strong non-discrimination, anti-harassment, and recruitment practices to ensure access, equity, and inclusion.
- Quality & Safety - Apprentices are afforded worker protections while receiving rigorous training to equip them with the skills they need to succeed and the proper training and supervision they need to be safe.
- Credentials - Apprentices earn a portable, nationally-recognized credential within their industry.
