About the Program

The Colorado Collegiate Apprenticeship Program is a statewide program funded with the goal of serving 5,000 Colorado Collegiate Apprentice by summer 2023.  

By aligning our resources with the passions of our state’s economy and higher education institutions, we are creating a streamlined, efficient and direct pipeline of trained, qualified talent as we work to reimagine modern efficiencies in higher education.

The program was created by a grant from the U.S. Department of Labor and administrated by the Colorado Department of Higher Education, in partnership with local colleges and universities.

Healthcare isn’t the only growing field for state-of-the-art apprenticeship programming. If you’re interested in other critical fields like Information Technology, we encourage you to visit our partners at the Colorado Department of Labor & Employment or for careers focused in IT and Technology, visit the Colorado Community College System.
