Community Colleges & Apprenticeship.
Community colleges can connect education, employers and workforce development.
Depending on the college and program, they may provide technical instruction, college credit, apprenticeship-related education, pre-apprenticeship, employer partnerships and other workforce-training opportunities.

Explore Community College Apprenticeship Programs. Community and technical colleges are an important part of America's apprenticeship and workforce-training system.
Colleges may provide Related Technical Instruction (RTI) for Registered Apprenticeships, award college credit, partner with apprenticeship sponsors and employers, offer pre-apprenticeship programs, or provide other career training and paid work-based learning pathways.
Explore community college apprenticeship resources to learn which colleges support apprenticeship, how college instruction connects with paid employment, and what questions to ask before choosing a program.
Important: In many Registered Apprenticeships, the employer or apprenticeship sponsor provides the apprenticeship job while the college provides some or all of the related instruction. Applying to a college program does not necessarily mean you have applied for an apprenticeship job.
