A.8. Abstract: Description and Purpose: National Apprenticeship Week (NAW) is a nationwide movement to promote Registered Apprenticeship and educate the public on opportunities that exist by encouraging apprenticeship sponsors to host local apprenticeship related events and sign NAW proclamations. The NAW Event and Proclamation Registration Form links give apprenticeship stakeholders and champions (employers, education institutions, Members of Congress, labor unions, industry associations, city, state and federal, and community based organizations) an opportunity to tell us and the public about the NAW events and proclamations they’re hosting and signing across the country. It is also an opportunity for DOL to track the impact and progress of NAW. The Event Registration Form link includes event related information such as the name of the organization hosting the event, the date, time, and location of the event, a brief description (500 words or less), and point of contact in case people want more information. The Proclamation Registration Form link includes proclamation related information such as the name of the signatory/signatories, the date and location, a link to a digital copy, and a point of contact in case people want more information. The NAW Event or Proclamation Update Form link gives individuals who previously submitted an Event or Proclamation Registration Form to update the details prior to the event taking place so that DOL can update it on the website and the public can view the most up-to-date information. The update form requests contact information to appropriately match the updates with the preexisting event or proclamation, and then an opportunity to describe what the contact would like changed on their event or proclamation listing. The NAW Event Highlight Form link gives individuals an opportunity to share highlights from their completed NAW event(s) with DOL. The information may then be used publicly by DOL to celebrate the success of NAW. The highlight form requests contact information to appropriately match the highlight with the preexisting event, and then an opportunity to describe the highlight and add pictures. The forms in this IC will be used for both the 2021 and 2022 National Apprenticeship Week registration. Note that the information provided on all four of these forms are intended for public use on the NAW website, so there is no need or expectation for confidentiality.
