Youth Apprenticeship is a 1 or 2-year program that gives juniors and seniors the chance to explore a career area of interest. Students spend part of their school day doing real-life, hands-on, PAID learning under the guidance of a local business mentor.
In this program, students gain the skills and experiences to compete for high-paying, highly-skilled jobs. As paid employees of a local business partner, students have the same type of work, projects, and responsibilities as other employees in their career field.
"The best part of Youth Apprenticeship is getting a better grasp of how the real world works. YA has helped me advance in my career and find different opportunities for the future!"
-Lucas Fricke, YA Student with Certified Auto Service
"The best part has been meeting many new people and getting experience working in the field that I am planning to pursue a career in. I have tons of connections now, and honestly a new outlook on what my future is going to hold, all thanks to this program."
-Marek Muhowski, YA student with Aurora Clinic
