The Wisconsin Youth Apprenticeship program meets the requirements for work-based learning under the statewide school-to-work criteria. High school juniors and/or seniors receive academic and technical instruction in the classroom and on the job. The experience is designed to give students exposure to all aspects of an industry. In addition to classroom related instruction students will have paid, mentored work-based learning for a minimum of 900 hours (Two-Year). The one-year program (Level 1) requires a minimum of 450 paid, mentored work-based learning. Upon successful completion of the program, and obtaining a high school diploma, students will be awarded a Certificate of Occupational Proficiency by the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development. Contact the School-to- Work Coordinator for information on programs available.
Prerequisite: Students need to apply for the apprenticeship program during the second semester of their sophomore year (for Two-Year programs) or junior year (for Level 1 programs). Students will be screened and interviewed. Contact the School to Work coordinator for eligibility requirements and program availability.
