Listen to this article

The Institute for American Apprenticeships (IAA) and three partners were awarded a $1 million ($999,850.00) Maryland Works grant by the Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE) to fund the implementation of professional youth apprenticeship programs that address employment barriers for underserved and underrepresented populations in Maryland.

The IAA has partnered with the AICPA & CIMA (accounting and finance), the SHRM Foundation and the College of Southern Maryland (technical trades), who will register three new youth apprenticeships in Maryland, representing fields with a high need for talent across many industries, to drive these apprenticeship programs forward.
