Event Description:
Apprenticeships aren’t just for the trades anymore. Old school? Maybe. But with a fresh perspective, apprenticeships are becoming one of the smartest new strategies around. They are among the most effective ways for employers in the Manatee and Sarasota region to recruit, train, and retain top talent. With modern approaches and the support of CareerSource Suncoast, this proven "earn while you learn" model is helping businesses grow their own skilled workforce, reducing turnover, increasing productivity, and building loyalty from day one.
The U.S. Department of Labor found that employers experience a median return on investment (ROI) of $1.44 for every dollar invested in an apprentice over the course of the program and the subsequent five years. The same study reported that the median employer realized net benefits of approximately $17,800 per apprentice, considering both direct productivity gains and indirect benefits such as improved retention and reduced recruitment costs. Apprenticeships are not just for what you might think of as traditional skilled trades.
Join us for our November Chamber Headliners featuring Josh Matlock, CEO of CareerSource Suncoast, and a panel of local employers and recharge your creative thinking on workforce development strategies that could impact your bottom line and strengthen your talent pipeline.
