丹尼尔·菲利普斯, director of innovation for college and career readiness at Grand Island Public Schools, joined the Governor to talk about his district’s collaborative work with local employers to provide apprenticeship opportunities to students. Gotschall described CCC’s efforts to expand the availability of earn-while-you learn apprenticeships. Lindsay Corporation senior VP of human resources Kelly Staup highlighted the new welding apprenticeship program her business has partnered with CCC to offer.

The Nebraska Department of Labor is collaborating with businesses, 教育机构, and the US Department of Labor to develop new Registered Apprenticeship programs across a variety of industries.  Registered 学徒计划s offer high school and college students the opportunity to gain career skills while simultaneously earning income and advancing their education.
