Mission: Employable


Jan 18, 2022

Jump into the time machine and learn about how apprenticeships came to be and why they have been crucial to societies throughout the ages. Registered Apprenticeship Program Coordinators Kristopher Byam and Mimi Willoughby discuss some of the historical influences on the modern earn and learn model such as the practices developed by an ancient African military apprenticeship program and the laws that created apprenticeship programs across many societies. In addition to the historical background, we discuss two Registered Apprenticeship grant opportunities to build and strengthen programs in Iowa.
