Apprenticeships
 Apprenticeships in over 50 different occupations are available throughout Oakland County and Southeast Michigan, including automotive and industrial skilled technicians, as well as health care and social services.
These professional apprenticeships develop the next generation of skilled workers for Oakland County, Michigan and the United States. The Certificate of Completion from the U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Apprenticeship is recognized throughout the country. If the apprenticeship is sponsored by a labor union, upon completion the apprentice will also receive a journeyperson's card.
Because an individual must be a full-time employee of the company to which they are apprenticed, the pay scale begins around 40-50 percent of the typical full pay. Near the end of the apprenticeship, the pay usually ranges from 90-95 percent of the full rate.
