In Episode 14 of the Afterschool.org Podcast, we explore the expanding role of apprenticeships in workforce development, focusing on California’s ambitious goal to create 500,000 apprenticeships by 2029. We dive into how these programs are bridging skill gaps, supporting youth employment, and opening doors to high-demand fields like clean energy, cybersecurity, and advanced manufacturing. We’ll also discuss initiatives to make apprenticeships accessible to underrepresented groups and the benefits for both employers and apprentices. Join us as we uncover how this “earn while you learn” model is transforming career pathways in California, the U.S., and around the world.
