Background Yavapai College wishes to provide its students with opportunities for learning through off-campus experiences, including internships and apprenticeships. The industry partners are willing and capable of providing a quality learning experience in an agreement of mutual interest and advantage for the student to be provided an experiential education. Jim-explain why we do this

A successful Model: Freeport mcmoran apprenticeship 11-years ago an agreement between FMI and Yavapai College CTEC was formed to offer apprenticeships that developed into the following three areas Electrical & Instrumentation Diesel Technology Advanced Manufacturing (formally Industrial Plant Technology) That first-year 33 apprenticeships were awarded – 11 in each area Karla – FMI approached us and asked for a trained workforce

MOU established between YC & fmi Describes the ongoing relationship for the operation of the program Provides for annual or biannual review Establishes responsibilities of FMI and YC and working relationship Karla
