Shape1 TITLE OF INFORMATION COLLECTION: Apprentice Trailblazer Commitment Form


PURPOSE:


The Apprentice Trailblazer Initiative is designed to create a national network of diverse apprentices and apprenticeship graduates (graduates) of all ages and backgrounds to feature their stories and hear their perspectives, show how Registered Apprenticeships increase opportunities for underserved populations, and bring awareness to other career seekers who may be interested in becoming apprentices. The first cohort of Apprentice Trailblazers will include current youth apprentices and recent graduates.  Future cohorts of Apprentice Trailblazers will include adult apprentices.


Apprentice Trailblazers will hold the position for 1 year and provide an annual commitment to undertake activities of their choice to promote Registered Apprenticeship, including but not limited to, assisting to create peer apprentice working groups, promoting Registered Apprenticeship on social media, or serving as a speaker at Department of Labor events or panels promoting Registered Apprenticeship.


The Apprentice Trailblazer Commitment Form will be shared with Apprentice Trailblazers so they may confirm completion of their annual commitment activities. The form will also be shared with the Apprentice Trailblazers’ Registered Apprenticeship sponsors so these sponsors may also confirm completion of any activities. The form requests yes/no responses to each of the various activities and core expectations listed in the Apprentice Trailblazer Application, which all Apprentice Trailblazer candidates and their Registered Apprenticeship sponsors submit.
