b. 2. Describe How the State Will Incorporate Registered Apprenticeship into Its Strategy and Services.

Current Narrative:

The state will incorporate Registered Apprenticeships into its strategies and services by requiring the WorkForce WV One Stop Centers to seek out and assist Registered Apprenticeship Programs with recruitment into their individual training programs. Recruitment will include posting and advertisement of Registered Apprenticeship statewide announcements, job orders, phone notifications of apprenticeship openings, veteran priority of service, pre-application testing, initial screening of eligibility requirements and referral. Referral not only includes referral to the job order but to our partners for orientation and eligibility determination for WIOA funding for training. Additional strategies and services will include making space available to the apprenticeship programs for onsite job fairs for recruitment, advertising space for apprenticeship marketing items, space for onsite interviews and assist, as needed, with testing applicants at offsite locations.
