WORK-BASED LEARNING

LEARN AND EARN WITH MVCTC

According to ApprenticeOhio – “Learn the skills you need for a rewarding career while you earn a paycheck – all without racking up student loan debt!”

Last year, about 65 percent of Ohio college graduates borrowed money for their education. Before even stepping foot into the workforce, the average graduate was strapped with $29,391 in student loan debt.

What if you could earn the same amount per year as a college graduate without the student loan debt that goes along with it? That’s where ApprenticeOhio comes in! Learn more at http://apprentice.ohio.gov/index.stm

Ohio is investing in apprenticeships because business is booming in Ohio and employers can’t keep up with the demand for skilled workers. From manufacturing to medicine to computer technology, apprenticeships in Ohio cover a wider array of occupations than ever before.”

The students who meet the above requirements can start work the summer before their senior year. When school starts students can work two-weeks full time and return to school two-weeks full time.

Students need to be employed by the start of senior school year.
