ApprenticeshipNH, an initiative of the Community College System of New Hampshire, has developed a flexible workforce solution through the expansion of registered apprenticeships throughout the Granite State. Registered apprenticeships combine hands-on training and classroom education that help to upskill employees while also supporting employers’ hiring needs. The initiative works with businesses in high-growth industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, and construction to create pre-apprenticeship to registered apprenticeship pathways for adults and community members, incumbent workers, and high school students.
