Expert-led presentations and small group discussions will be facilitated across three tracks:
- Employer Track will focus on building and growing apprenticeships. Leaders from a broad range of industries will share their perspectives, strategies and lessons learned.
- Partners, Sponsors, and Communities Track will focus on collaborating to expand apprenticeship. We will do a deeper dive on the role of sponsors and educational partners in successfully developing apprenticeships.
- Practitioner & Systems Track will focus on innovation, scaling and impact. This track offers apprenticeship practitioners, intermediaries, and key system partners the opportunities to explore how to strengthen the Southeastern Pennsylvania Apprenticeship ecosystem.
Each day will feature a presentation from 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM ET focused on one of the tracks above. This event is for all businesses and organizations curious about developing an apprenticeship program or organizations already participating in an active program.
