This year the theme for NAW 2024 is “Celebrating 10 Years of Engagement, Expansion, and Innovation.” This theme reflects the transformative power of Registered Apprenticeship and its ability to bring together key national, regional, state, and local stakeholders across the country to meet critical workforce needs and give career seekers a jumpstart to their career.
To learn more about how you can get involved in NAW, mobilize your stakeholders and engage with other ApprenticeshipUSA partners, you are invited to join a Town Hall with U.S. Department of Labor leadership:

We look forward to you joining us on October 18 to learn more about how we can make this 10-year anniversary the biggest ever!
