| What is Apprenticeship? |
| |
At Sussex Tech, we call it the “Other Four Year Degree.” It is the best way to learn a skilled trade. An apprenticeship program combines daily hands-on training though your sponsoring employer with related classroom instruction in the evenings at Sussex Tech Adult Division. It is
a formal system of learning and practicing your chosen career trade. |
| State Registered Apprentices |
| |
Regardless of experience, if you are presently employed and working in your chosen occupation, your employer can sponsor you to become a State of Delaware or Maryland registered apprentice. State registered apprentices who reside in Delaware or work for a Delaware company may
attend the related instruction classes at Sussex Tech, TUITION FREE. Notice: Applicants for apprenticeship training must have a signed apprenticeship agreement by August 31st in order to qualify for tuition free training. Any student who does not have a valid apprenticeship agreement by
August 31st must pay tuition in order to register for apprenticeship classes. All students, including state registered apprentices, must pay a $75 non-refundable registration fee in addition to any tuition costs. Applicants will not be registered for classes until tuition fees and/or registration fees are paid.
