Registered apprenticeship sponsors, state by state

Registered apprenticeships are paid jobs whose wages rise as you learn (29 CFR 29.5): the program sets a progressively increasing wage schedule. A sponsor is the employer, union or group that runs the program and hires the apprentice. The public sponsor file does not say which occupations a sponsor trains, so ask the sponsor, use apprenticeship.gov's Apprenticeship Finder, or visit your American Job Center.

Each approved title sets how its term is counted (29 CFR 29.5(b)(2)): time-based programs count hours on the job; competency-based programs move on when the apprentice shows the skills; hybrid programs use both, within a range of hours. Each registered program sets its own term inside what the approved title allows. The occupation pages list every approved title with its term.
