For a complete list of trades that have been approved please visit the Apprenticeship Trades at NYSDOL. Only apprenticeship programs officially registered with the New York State Department of Labor are recognized nationally.

If your company has a registered apprenticeship through the NYSDOL, then you may be eligible to get the related instruction portion of an apprenticeship partly/fully covered. There is funding available for pre-apprenticeships to get interested candidates prepared to enter an apprenticeship program.

It’s also important to note that some employers may be eligible for SUNY funding to pay for their apprenticeship training. Employers operating in Advanced Manufacturing, Healthcare, IT/Cybersecurity/Artificial Intelligence and other sectors outside of the construction trades can participate in the SUNY Apprenticeship Program.
