Apprentices earn a wage
while gaining valuable
workplace experience, a
nationally recognized
industry certification and
debt-free college credit.
Industry benefits from
tangible financial ROI as
it makes the shift from
being consumers of talent
to producers of talent.
K-12 and higher

improve student
outcomes with
increased student

“APPRENTICES
WERE MORE
PRODUCTIVE
THAN TYPICAL
WORKERS…”
- A 2016 Department of Commerce study
of 13 apprenticeship programs
“…They provided the firm
with a pipeline of skilled
talent and were less likely to
leave the job. They also got
work done faster than
regular new employees,
which saved the company
from paying up for excessive
overtime.”

APPRENTICE
WAGE
The business partner pays the apprentice at an
hourly rate of minimum wage or higher.
The apprentice will likely work 16 hours in Year 1,
24 hours in Year 2, and 32 hours in Year 3, with
potentially more hours possible during summers
when school is out (summer hours decisions are
at discretion of employer/apprentice).
TRAINING
COSTS
The business partner covers the cost of training
center tuition each year. Total training costs,
including the CareerWise Business Participation
fee, will not exceed $5000/year per apprentice.
The training center contribution will vary
depending on the size of the apprenticeship
cohort. For example, the Year 1 training center
contribution for the 2017 Advanced
Manufacturing pathway was $2,000.
BUSINESS
PARTICIPATION
FEE
Business partners also pay CareerWise an annual
per-apprentice Participation Fee as part of the
training costs. The fee is assessed based on the
associated table.
APPRENTICES
IN COHORT
PER-APPRENTICE
FEE*
9 or less $500/year
Between 10 and 25 $400/year
25 or greater $300/year
*The Per-Apprentice Fee is charged at the end of each program year based on
the number of apprentices in your cohort according to the above table. Your
total invoice will be due by July 01 in 2019, 2020, and 2021.
**New pathways have the first year of the participation fee waived.
