Registered Apprenticeship Program Registration Process Packet Nneka Thompson, Senior Program Manager JFF

Why A Registered Apprenticeship: Program Registration Process Packet? Created with employers and sponsors in mind: Capture all of the pieces of the registration process together in a single document. Started as our checklist for planning and running our Accelerators. Teach about what’s needed for registration: documentation and the process for gathering information.

The Registered Apprenticeship Program Registration Process Packet guides both the technical assistance provider and the sponsor. The packet itself is not a technical assistance substitute. To download, visit: http://center4apprenticeship.jff.org/resources/process-packet.
