About the Apprenticeship Utah Network
Scott Romney was appointed as the state's Commissioner of Apprenticeship Programs, housed within the Department of Workforce Services. His work includes cultivating partnerships with both industry and education leaders to increase apprenticeship opportunities throughout the state.
“Apprenticeship is a tool that helps both employee and employer, and can be the high tide raising all ships as we use it to support our state economy. I have seen the impact apprenticeship has on an individual’s quality of life as well as a company’s success and I am grateful for the opportunity to work with our partners to grow and expand apprenticeship in my home state. With Utah’s consistent economic growth and ever-increasing demand for skilled employees, this work has never been more exciting.” - Scott Romney, Commissioner of Apprenticeship Programs
The Apprenticeship Utah Network has been established to:
-
Expand and promote apprenticeship opportunities across Utah by connecting companies to learn best practices from their peers that have already established similar programs
-
Connect future apprentices to apprenticeship opportunities.
-
Educate parents, counselors and other educators on what apprenticeships are and the value for students.
The network is comprised of businesses, industry associations, labor-management organizations, related instruction training providers and government agencies. The network benefits employers across many sectors in developing and maintaining apprenticeship programs in construction, IT, manufacturing, healthcare and other industries across the state. We host networking events to provide support for and grow apprenticeship opportunities in Utah. To subscribe to our email list to learn about upcoming events, join our newsletter.
