EXPERIENCE NWMO REGIONAL APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAM
A Program of the Saint Joseph School District & Hillyard Technical Center
Apprenticeship is an effective way to gain the necessary training to enter the workforce making a livable wage with ample opportunity for advancement. Registered youth apprenticeship combines related technical instruction (coursework at Hillyard Technical Center) and on the job training (scheduled with the partnering employer) to give students the opportunity to gain the technical
and employability skills necessary to be successful post-graduation.

APPRENTICESHIP BENEFITS
Students are able to earn while they learn.
This means that students earn their graduation requirements for work they are getting paid to do during school hours. Upon successful completion of the program, students will have their Hillyard completion certificate, High School Diploma, Department of Labor Apprenticeship Certificate, along with a year of experience in their chosen field.
INFORMATION FOR PARENTS & STUDENTS
Students gain valuable life skills.
Apprenticeships are employer-driven which means that the employer ultimately decides who to hire and who to let go. Employers are investing in your students when they hire them with their own business’ assets. This is an opportunity for your student to grow in their ability to gain responsibility in the workplace. The goal of the Saint Joseph School District is educating each child for success. This program values community partnership as a means to provide students with personal and professional growth opportunities.
