Solid Foundations: Four State Policy Approaches for Supporting College-Connected Apprenticeships
Prebil, Michael
New America
Existing state policies to support the costs of apprentices' classroom training at colleges are a patchwork. Some states have implemented effective subsidies to support credit-bearing apprenticeship offerings without any cost to the apprentice; other policies are well-intentioned but counterproductive. Across the country, though, many states already have the policy groundwork to support college classes for apprentices, even with rather modest investments. In this brief, I explore the advantages and drawbacks of four current approaches to funding the classroom component of apprenticeship and provide recommendations for policymakers looking to support college-connected apprenticeships in their state.
