Apprentices learn only a portion of their skills in a traditional classroom. They receive most of their training on-the-job, while working for an employer who pays a good wage. The employment is the primary requirement for an apprenticeship - a job must exist in order for the apprentice to be trained. The classroom instruction is usually provided through the Wisconsin Technical College system. Wisconsin has Apprenticeship Training Representatives (ATRs) throughout the state ready to help you identify the apprenticeship model that best suits your company. When you call or e-mail your ATR, you'll get intensive, one-on-one technical assistance and on-site guidance to get your program up and running. Contact your ATR to learn more about how apprenticeship can help.
