24 Vermont Department of Labor Apprenticeship Program College&CareerPathways2019

25 VT DOL apprenticeships Earn while you learn with VT DOL apprenticeships What is an apprentice? An apprentice is an employee who learns a trade or craft through planned, supervised on-the-job training, combined with classroom instruction. What types of apprenticeship programs are available? The Apprenticeship Department currently has more than 1600 Vermonters registered in more than 30 different occupations. All are employed in the trade of their choice and, when they complete the program, enjoy continued employment at a higher, skilled rate of pay. These programs include electrical, plumbing, sheet metal, child care development, line maintainer, ski lift mechanics, and many more!

26 VT DOL apprenticeships Training What is the difference between apprenticeships and other types of training? Apprenticeship includes on-the-job training and classroom instruction which usually occur simultaneously. The result is that apprentices learn both the theoretical and practical aspects of the job. Apprentices are taught all of the craft skills associated with the trade, and not just a few related segments. How is the training structured? Most apprenticeship programs last from 1 to 4 years. Apprentices work on actual job sites under the supervision of qualified journey workers. The training may include courses in mathematics, sciences, and other craftrelated technical subjects.

27 VT DOL apprenticeships Compensation How much are apprentices paid? New apprentices typically earn 50 percent of the journey worker wage and, if progress is satisfactory, they usually receive increases every 6 months. Most apprentice entry-level wages range from $11.00 to $15.00 per hour. Apprentices nearing the end of their training generally earn 90 to 95 percent of the journey worker wage, which typically ranges from $14.00 to $20.00 per hour.

28 VT DOL apprenticeships Qualifications What does it take to qualify as an apprentice? Qualifications vary from program to program. Almost all require a high school diploma or GED certificate, some basic mathematics and science courses, aptitude and the physical ability to perform the work. Can I get help to qualify? Yes. If you are having difficulty with basic math skills, writing or reading comprehension, you should contact Adult Basic Education at If you are a woman who needs assistance or training to qualify for entry into a non-traditional trade, you should contact your local Vermont Department of Labor Career Resource Center.

29 VT DOL apprenticeships Completion What do I get when I complete an apprenticeship program? Each graduate of the Apprenticeship program receives a Completion Certificate. This certificate, recognized nationwide, attests to the apprentice s achievement and abilities. What is a journey worker? A journey worker is a person fully skilled in a trade. Some trades also have a master, which is a higher level of skilled worker. An apprentice becomes a journey worker after completion of the apprenticeship and other testing requirements.

30 VT DOL apprenticeships Getting Started How can I become an apprentice? If you re employed, your employer may contact an Apprenticeship Field Representative to make an on-site visit. This representative will help you and your sponsor complete an Apprenticeship Agreement to get you registered. If you are not employed, you can find employers who may be interested in a variety of ways, including contacting your local Vermont Department of Labor Career Resource Center. You can also apply directly to employers who employ the type of workers in occupations in which you are interested.
