The Unified or Combined State Plan must include the following with respect to activities carried out under subtitle B—
b. 2. Registered Apprenticeship
Describe how the State will incorporate Registered Apprenticeship into its strategy for service design and delivery (e.g., job center staff taking applications and conducting assessments).
Current Narrative:
According to California law, when Local Boards provide apprenticeship or pre apprenticeship related services using WIOA funds, they must coordinate with the apprenticeship programs in their Local Area that have been formally accredited by the Department of Industrial Relations Division of Apprenticeship Standards.
As part of California’s efforts to better align federal and state workforce programs, the State will be working to coordinate the provision of apprenticeship services with workforce and training services. This could include the co-location of apprenticeship staff in career centers, where appropriate. While discussions on how best to achieve this coordination are still underway, it is anticipated that operational details will become clearer with further stakeholder engagement.
