The Attainment Network is proud to be a trusted partner in expanding access to high-quality apprenticeships across Colorado. Last week, we were thrilled to facilitate Apprenticeship Colorado’s webinar to help employers and apprenticeship sponsors from across the state design and strengthen programs that connect learners and earners with high-value, in-demand careers. 

With 75 employers and apprenticeship sponsors attending, the event showcased the energy and commitment around creating effective and inclusive pathways from education to employment. 

We want to send a special thank you to Apprenticeship Colorado for hosting the webinar as well as our partners at Emily Griffith Technical College, and Greiner Electric for sharing tools, insights, and real-world experience to expand access to apprenticeships statewide.

• Starter Questionnaire – assess your readiness and clarify your goals
