State Apprenticeship Council

The Hawaii State Apprenticeship Council registers and oversees apprenticeship programs in 該州, setting standards for on-the-job training and related technical instruction that prepare workers for skilled trades careers. The council approves new apprenticeship program applications, monitors compliance with federal and state apprenticeship standards, and promotes the expansion of apprenticeship pathways in construction, healthcare, technology, and other industries. It works to ensure apprenticeship programs deliver quality training that meets industry needs.

Registered apprenticeship programs provide a debt-free pathway to well-paying careers in skilled trades and emerging industries in Hawaii. Workers seeking apprenticeship opportunities, employers wanting to start a program, and educators can engage with the council to connect with Hawaii's apprenticeship system.
