According to the US Department of Labor, 94% of apprentices who complete an apprenticeship retain employment. Combining elements of both education and hands-on experience, they provide the ultimate option if you wish to earn as you learn. While across the USA the range of programs is constantly growing, the traditional trades still dominate with the top four most popular apprenticeships remaining electrician, carpenter, construction craft laborer and plumber.While employers are proficient at providing the on-the-job training aspect of an apprenticeship program, accessing appropriate theory courses can be more difficult. Alison’s free online courses for skilled trades step into the gap with all the head knowledge that is required to back up that all-important hands-on experience. Many of the practical skills courses in our Apprenticeship Hub have been provided by USAID. The United States Agency for International Development has created a series of courses focusing on trades such as electrics, plumbing, carpentry and masonry. These courses have been designed to bring any learner from being a complete beginner to understanding their chosen trade.Pre-Apprenticeship CoursesIf you are facing challenges to finding a pathway into a rewarding career, a pre-apprenticeship is an attractive option. These aim to help disadvantaged people - women, people with disabilities, young people and veterans - to enter into registered apprenticeships and make a start on improving their lives.
