EXECUTIVE SUMMARY | |
We request approval of the renewal educational agreements to continue to provide training for 13 building trades apprenticeship committees and one pre-apprenticeship committee.
For more than 20 years, the district has had active educational agreements with the building trades apprenticeship committees for adult job training programs. During the 2011/2012 school year, approximately 860 apprentices attended classes through Aparicio-Levy and Learey technical centers. Continued on attachment. |

Estimated funds of $1,681,800 will be included in the divisional general operating budget. The apprenticeship training programs generate Workforce Education funds that cover all district direct and indirect expenses for the programs. | |

The quality of the programs is evaluated annually for compliance with the Commission on Occupational Education, the Florida Department of Education, and the Federal Bureau of Apprenticeship Training; student achievement is evaluated by the number of OCPs earned. | |
