From November 14-20, 2016, the Department of Labor will join industry, education and workforce leaders across the country to celebrate the second annual National Apprenticeship Week.

The PHCC-NA recently shared a host of ideas to help promote the week, including templates for invitations and press releases. You can find those here.

President Barack Obama proclaimed the week of Nov. 2, 2015, as the first Annual National Apprenticeship Week, also referred to as NAW. Across the nation through over 300 events in 47 states, communities large and small recognized the important role Apprentices play in offering employers an opportunity to develop a highly skilled workforce to help grow their business and career seekers the chance to earn a salary while learning the skills necessary to succeed.

PHCC—National Association and PHCC Educational Foundation encourage members and chapters to participate in this event. For more information, visit: https://www.dol.gov/apprenticeship/NAW/
