What is the SUNY Apprenticeship Program?

This SUNY-developed grant, in partnership with the New York State Department of Labor (NYSDOL), helps New York employers build paid, registered apprenticeships in high-skill, high-demand careers across advanced manufacturing, healthcare, and information technology. TC3 serves as a local partner, assisting employers with program development, training alignment, and ongoing support.
