An apprenticeship is often a competitive program with an organization that includes employment, on-the-job training and classroom training, and industry-recognized credentials upon completion. Apprenticeship programs are growing beyond the traditional manufacturing and construction industries and can now be found in healthcare, energy, information technology, transportation, and other established and growing industries.</p><p>Lasting anywhere from one to six years (depending on the industry), completing a registered apprenticeship includes credentials that are often internationally recognized.<br></p><h4>"93% of apprentices who complete a Registered Apprenticeship retain employment, with an average annual salary of $77,000."
