Apprenticeship in Brief

/ Brief

Based on experience with apprenticeships in Switzerland, the Nestlé USA corporation commissioned this paper from the Committee for Economic Development (CED) of The Conference Board to gain a better understanding of implementation in the United States. CED conducted a series of interviews with national experts and diverse stakeholders (employers, community colleges, unions, and intermediaries) currently supporting apprenticeship programs to learn more about the potential of this training model, key elements of success, barriers, and lessons learned. As this information may be useful more broadly to American employers, Nestlé has graciously agreed to make this paper publicly available through CED.
