Apprenticeships
The Apprenticeship Office serves as the information center for apprenticeship training
on campus. This office provides training and specialized record keeping for apprentices
employed in various trade professions in the area. Classes offered at 博天堂官方 are for
registered apprentices and people interested in becoming apprentices. To become a
registered apprentice, a person must be employed by an employer participating in the
Oregon apprenticeship program. Taking apprenticeship classes can give the student
credentials for employment into the trades.
