National Apprenticeship Week 2022

Celebrate the eighth annual National Apprenticeship Week (NAW) and honor the 85th Anniversary of the National Apprenticeship Act with the Hub as we highlight our partners in a week-long interview series, spotlighting different RAPs across the country.

National Apprenticeship Week was established to celebrate the significant impact Registered Apprenticeship (RA) programs have had in rebuilding the economy, building a pipeline to good, quality jobs, and supporting local communities.

The Hub will showcase our partner organizations’ excellent work in advancing workforce development through RAs.
