Manufacturing Apprenticeships

Finding qualified early-career talent is increasingly expensive, competitive, and time-consuming. Apprenticeships, using our related training instruction (RTI) paired with on-the-job training, are a talent solution for manufacturers of all sizes.

Engage Apprentices with Effective RTI
Engage apprentices using our industry-driven online curriculum aligned to common apprenticeship job functions for effective RTI.

Support Industry Standards
Feel confident knowing our RTI is aligned with nationally recognized U.S. Department of Labor apprenticeship programs (Registered Apprenticeship Programs).

Deliver a Competency-based Approach
Pair on-the-job training with Tooling U-SME online classes for the RTI to provide guided learning paths. Apprentices obtain real-life work experience, resulting in good jobs and salaries.

Offer Maximum Flexibility
With a pre-defined curriculum, educators and employers have more time for one-on-one instruction and guidance. Our frameworks can be mapped into your existing programs or used as a foundation for a new apprenticeship program. 

Start Early
Our Pre-Apprenticeship programs provide students and incumbent workers with foundational skills, help them choose a career pathway of specialization, and meet the entry requirements for Registered Apprenticeship Programs.

Competency-Based Approach to Skills Development & Career Pathways

Registered apprenticeships are a proven form of training in manufacturing, with a long history of developing the workforce that has and will continue to make significant advancements in the industry. Combining on-the job training (OJT) with related training instruction (RTI) introduces trainees to critical concepts while providing real-world experience.

With online classes from Tooling U-SME, RTI is effective and engaging, providing the knowledge trainees need and employers demand.

Tooling U-SME's Apprenticeship Frameworks support nationally recognized Department of Labor apprenticeship programs and are easily incorporated and mapped into your existing programs or used as a foundation for a new apprenticeship program.

Our frameworks offer maximum flexibility: With a pre-defined curriculum, educators and employers have more time for one-on-one instruction and guidance. Yet the frameworks are also customizable, allowing for a selection of classes and topics that are specific to the employers’ needs.

One step before an apprenticeship, our Pre-Apprenticeship programs provide students and incumbent workers with foundational skills and help them choose a career pathway of specialization, as well as meet the entry requirements for Registered Apprenticeship Programs (RAPs).
