2023 RFA - Workforce Expansion Initiative - Teacher Externship Program

Through funding from the District’s allocation of Federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) and local funding focused building local apprenticeship awareness, DOES OAIT seeks proposals for teacher/educator externship programs that strengthens relationships with local school districts and connects educators with a 6–8-week first-hand training experience in the world of apprenticeship.  Programs should operate within the summer months and expose educators on how apprenticeship supports students to develop in-demand academic and technical skills for today’s workforce.
