Virtual Workshop

Jumpstart your Apprenticeships with Transatlantic Best Practices

Save time and avoid common pitfalls for your apprenticeship program, by engaging with experts and peers from Germany’s renowned apprenticeship model. Go right to the source and learn from an apprenticeship model that’s been replicated in more than 35 countries. Invest just a few hours per day instead of the full week that an overseas trip would take.

Program hours are 8:30 - 11:30 am CT, Mon-Fri. Download the full Agenda.

Topics include:

  • Snapshot of success: How companies large and small are leveraging apprenticeships to attract talent, increase retention, and compete globally
  • The playing field: How local and national institutions facilitate apprenticeships and create opportunities for upward mobility
  • David & Goliath: How small companies compete for talent, and win
  • The teacher makes all the difference: How investing in the trainer multiplies the positive effect of apprenticeships, with a sneak-peek into our Train-The-Trainer Seminar

Key Takeaways

  • Company representatives will learn from peers who have decades of experience with apprenticeships
  • Education partners will see a number of successful models, which can help them evaluate, create, and advise on local programs their students are involved in. 
  • Policy makers and will see the effects of the structures in practice.

In addition to input from our experts from Germany, the workshop will focus on interactive discussion and development of best-practice recommendations. Workshop participation on all days is requested. 

Opportunities to build on the connections made here will be available with a study trip to Germany, planned for December 2021. Information coming soon.
