About Us

The Registered Apprenticeship Program and Industry-Recognized Apprenticeship Program is administered by the Office of Apprenticeship (OA) under the Employment and Training Administration (ETA) in the DOL. We have apprenticeship offices and consultants located in every state across the county to help you. While some states have been recognized as State Apprenticeship Agencies by OA, we both provide technical assistance and support to program sponsors, answer questions about the apprenticeship model, guide partners on each phase of developing a program, connect businesses to training providers, and advise partners on available funding sources to support apprenticeships.
