Apprenticeship is a proven tool for meeting your talent pipeline challenges. It is an employer-driven, "learn-while-you-earn" model that combines job-related educa­tion, supervised on-the-job learning and a scalable wage progression.

Apprenticeship is a flexible strategy that is easily customized to meet the needs of any business. With the Baby Boomer population on the verge of retiring, apprenticeships offer companies the opportunity to provide a roadmap to individuals seeking direction, mentoring and the opportunity to be paid to learn a skill that allows them to earn a living and assist companies in filling critically needed occupations.

The TCTC Youth Apprenticeship Program benefits to your organization include:

  • Access to aspiring apprentices already achieving at a high level
  • The ability to recruit and screen potential employees
  • Free consultative services
  • Workers compensation coverage of apprentice provided by local school districts the apprentice attends
  • $1,000 tax credits for each apprentice for up to four years
  • Retention tool for competitive positions
  • Recruiting tool for hard-to-fill positions

 Many think of traditional trades such as construction, electrician and plumber as the ideal occupations for an apprenticeship. Apprenticeship Carolina™ has broadened that scope to include nontraditional indus­try sectors like healthcare, advanced manu­facturing, information technology, tourism, transportation, distribution, logistics and service industries. 

  As a company with a registered apprenticeship, you can:

  • Earn a state tax credit
  • Influence, shape and mold future employees
  • Increase productivity
  • Decrease costly turnover
  • Create a talent pipeline for the future
