Apprenticeship Program Opportunities in Construction Partner with American River College


If you are looking to go back and finish college but can’t give up your job, or you’re thinking about attending college for the first time, then maybe you can benefit from an apprenticeship program. An apprenticeship is a way of getting trained in a particular job skill by working for an employer within your interested field of work. Many apprenticeships involve the employer training you on site, called on-the-job-training, in exchange for your labor for an agreed length of time. There are also some educational institutions that work together with employers to not only teach a skill to students in an organized manner, but to be able to offer some pay at the same time.
