Apprenticeship

Mission Statement

An apprenticeship program is an agreement betweent an employer and an employee. As part of this agreement, the employer (sponsor) agrees to provide the employee (apprentice) with on-the-job-training.

The apprentice also agrees to attend related instruction classes for the length of the apprenticeship.

UCVTS provides related instruction in many areas through the Adult Evening School.

Certificates are awarded for successful completion of apprenticeship by both the U.S. Department of Labor and the N.J, Department of Labor and Workforce Development. The USDOL certificates are recognized nationally.

How Do I Begin?

To begin an apprenticeship an employee needs to find out if his/her employer will sponsor the apprenticeship. Sponsorship is an easy, free process. The Sponsor will contact the N.J. Department of Labor to obtain the forms necessary to register the apprentice and sign the Apprenticeship Agreement.

The apprentice continues to work full time and takes continuing education courses at sites such as Union County Vocational-Technical Schools. For more information, contact the Union County Apprenticeship Coordinator at (908) 889 - 8288 x304.
