Mission of the Apprenticeship
Program | |
| |
To provide apprenticeship training for their employees, many employers partner
with the California Community Colleges (CCC) or with the California Department
of Education’s Regional Occupational Programs/Centers (ROPCs) and Adult Schools.
The community colleges have approximately 16,200 apprentices enrolled in over160
apprenticeship programs comprised of a total of 66 trades/crafts titles located
on 39 campuses. Apprentices receive on-the-job training via their employer, and
then in the evening or weekend receive employer selected “related and supplemental
instruction” (RSI). Through many of the RSI apprenticeship programs an apprentices
can earn a certificate or degree (Associate of Arts, or Associate of Science).
The apprenticeships are typically three to five years in length. The 2002-03 California
Budget Act provides $12,729,000 for the apprenticeship RSI. Based on a mutually
agreed on contract, a given employer/program sponsor and the community college
district share this Budget Act funding for the total number of clock hours the
apprentices attended the RSI instruction. All RSI apprenticeship programs offered
by the community colleges must be approved by the Chancellor of the California
Community Colleges as well as approved by the Division of Apprenticeship Standards
which is a division within the California Department of Industrial Relations.
