Celebrate National Apprenticeship Week
Whether you host your own event, or submit a feature for DLR to highlight, we hope you join us in celebrating National Apprenticeship Week to bring awareness to the vital programs you bring to South Dakota.
Event Ideas
- Graduation: Highlight your current or recent apprentice graduations in a celebratory event.
- Open House: Hold an in-person or virtual open house at your business to showcase your apprenticeship program.
- Career Fair: Host a community or individual career fair at your business inviting the public to learn more about your company and the opportunities you provide.
- Skills Competition: Showcase what your apprentices can do by planning a skills competition. Think about partnering with other businesses with similar apprenticeship programs – who doesn’t love a good old-fashioned competition?
