In this episode Harold King and Johnnieanne Hansen discuss how the MIAP apprentice program works, why it works, and how you can enroll your employees.  Apprenticeship consists of two stages: On-the-Job Training (OJT) and Related Instruction (RI). OJT allows an apprentice to learn firsthand from a skilled craftsperson who will demonstrate and share their experience in the field. In RI, apprentices will learn the theory – and knowledge – based components of the craft. They must complete 144 hours of classroom or online training each year.

Other MIAP Registered Trades:

Machinist (CNC)
Electro-Mechanical Technician
Maintenance Mechanic (Automatic Equipment)
Quality Assurance Auditor
Toolmaker
Industrial Manufacturing Technician
Plastics Molder

The Council of Industry has partnered with various organizations to provide incentives to qualifying apprentices, including tax credits. Click here to learn more.
