Youth Apprenticeship Week (YAW) is a nationwide celebration established by the U.S. Department of Labor where employers, industry associations, labor organizations, community-based organizations, workforce partners, education providers, and government leaders host events to showcase and promote high-quality, inclusive, in-demand career pathway opportunities through Registered Apprenticeship. Additionally, YAW provides apprentices a platform to share their apprenticeship experience and how it has transformed their lives.

The 1st nationwide YAW will take place May 5-11, 2024, and will be celebrated at over a thousand events across the country. Join us in celebrating apprenticeships at our YAW event!
