The Apprentice School is gearing up for its Youth Builders Pre-Apprenticeship Program’s 2024-2025 cohort.
The program is open to 11th and 12th grade students in public, private or home schools throughout Hampton Roads who have an interest in shipbuilding careers. The Youth Builders vision is to encourage, empower and recruit the next generation of leaders in digital shipbuilding by improving their job readiness skills to become high performance craftspeople in the shipbuilding trades.
The application link to apply is available at www.as.edu.The program begins in September and runs through the end of April. Sessions are held from 4 until 6 p.m. on Tuesdays virtually on Microsoft Teams. One in-person session will be held monthly in The Apprentice School’s simulation lab, where students will be exposed to trades and trades-related hands-on demonstrations for workplace learning.
