IV. Apprenticeship Preparatory Fundamentals (APF): The Apprenticeship Preparatory Fundamentals pre-apprenticeship certificate program prepares students for registered apprenticeship, work-based learning, and entry-level employment opportunities. Completers receive an additional pre-apprenticeship certificate of completion from NCWorks Apprenticeship. Colleges may establish an Apprenticeship Preparatory Fundamentals program by including the Preparatory Core within an approved career technical education local certificate program. A separate APF program of study shall be filed with the System Office prior to implementation and the college should add a local suffix (AP) to the program code to distinguish the program. For tracking requirements, colleges shall report completers using the following 5-digit format example, where the last program code digit has been dropped and a “P” inserted in its place: C5042P or C2512P.
