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.
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.
