Putting apprenticeships to work: How work-based learning is helping to close the digital talent gap

Over the past 10 years, we have helped thousands of career changers acquire new skills and pivot into jobs in tech, with a particular focus on training early-career workers in software engineering, data, product and UX roles. The apprenticeship model reflects a philosophy and approach core to our model since our founding. 

Through our work with major tech employers, from Adobe to Disney to Interapt, we have supported “learning-while-earning” efforts that closely resemble traditional apprenticeships and are making a measurable impact on helping workers chart a course to higher wages and expanded career opportunities.

Our latest paper dives deep into the apprenticeship model, giving readers:

  • Advice for building a stronger apprenticeship ecosystem
  • A tour through the evolution of apprenticeships from the middle ages to today 
  • An overview of public policy and how registered apprenticeships work
