National Apprenticeship Week National Apprenticeship Week is November 8-14, 2020.

National Apprenticeship Week (NAW) is a nationwide celebration that brings together business leaders, career seekers, labor, educational institutions, and other critical partners to demonstrate their support for apprenticeship. NAW also provides apprenticeship sponsors with the opportunity to showcase their programs, facilities, and apprentices in their community. The week-long celebration highlights the benefits of apprenticeship in preparing a highly-skilled workforce to meet the talent needs of employers across diverse industries.

The Four Rivers Career Center’s Apprenticeship Program, spearheaded by Apprenticeship Coordinator Cynthia Walker, had its national signing day canceled due to the pandemic. Instead, students in the program will visit different businesses in the community.

Washington Mayor Sandy Lucy presented a Proclamation for National Apprenticeship Week to Walker, FRCC Director Andy Robinson and FRCC College and Career Specialist Annie Wieland.
