Training Funding Available to NYS Department of Labor Approved Apprentices
Registered apprentices are required to complete 144 hours per year of trade related foundational training called related instruction. To offset the cost and encourage companies to partner with community colleges the SUNY apprenticeship program offers funding to provide up to $5,000 of free instruction to each registered apprentice (in person and/or online).
The Council of Industry works closely with all Mid-Hudson Community Colleges to help them provide the best and most up to date training for the region’s manufacturing employees and apprentices so most of the courses listed below qualify for related instruction and may be free for registered apprentices.
The Hudson Valley Manufacturing community is filled with interesting industries, organizations, products, and people. Hear about Dr. Peter Grant Jordan, President of Dutchess Community College, in our latest podcast.
