Youth apprenticeship is more than an internship. Students are hired by employers into modern occupations like IT and financial services (and more!), and during the multi-year program apprentices are trained alongside seasoned professionals doing meaningful, valuable work.
In the end, apprentices are ready to step into full-time roles in in-demand, high-growth positions – creating options for students and a new, diverse talent pipeline for employers.
"If everyone had the opportunity to take part in an apprenticeship program, we would be in a much better position relating to equity and social mobility for youth. The CareerWise apprenticeship program is aiming to break barriers and ensure our BIPOC youth have equitable access to career growth and social mobility."
