Apprenticeship Champions of Excellence (ACE)

ACE Apprenticeship

Did you know Dallas College is a leading developer of U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) Registered Apprenticeships?

We work with employers daily to create and run high-quality apprenticeship programs that help people practice new skills while earning portable, nationally recognized credentials at minimal cost.

Registered Apprenticeships (RAPs) are learn-and-earn programs that typically start with an employer, a job and a salary. Participants train while they work. Program length varies by occupation, but programs are a at least 1 year (2000 work hours) and 144 hours of classroom or self-paced training. Successful completers earn a Department of Labor Registered Apprenticeship certificate, and any industry-recognized credentials included for the occupation.

Most apprenticeship opportunities depend on the number of apprentice positions available with employers at a given time. However there are a few opportunities to enter apprenticeships by first becoming a regular student.

RAP opportunities available through the academic schools at Dallas College:
