Recruiting, training, and retaining tech talent is one of the greatest challenges of the 21st century. With over 192,000 new tech roles created in 2021, and only 75,000 college graduates with related degrees, more than 900,000 tech positions were left unfilled. With this gap growing exponentially year over year, the need to invest in creating more tech talent at a faster pace is clearer than ever.
Diverse cultural perspectives not only inspire creativity and drive innovation, they increase employee morale and instill a desire to be more effective, which leads to increased productivity.
As the first nationally registered tech apprenticeship program, Apprenti defines tech apprenticeship. Our trusted national organization has adapted the time-tested model of apprenticeship to create a quicker path to qualified and certified talent. Apprenti is creating a new pipeline of untapped talent and strengthening the tech ecosystem nationwide.
Apprenti provides a full-service solution for adopting and creating apprenticeships within your company either through accessing our holistic approach, or via consulting with us to build your own in-house program.
