Last month, EARN was pleased to speak during a webinar sponsored by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Apprenticeship to share best practices for encouraging self-identification of disability by apprentices – a topic of increased interest as a result of 2016 updates to rules regarding equal employment opportunity (EEO) in Registered Apprenticeship programs. These updates aim to help apprenticeship program sponsors reach a larger and more diverse pool of workers, including women, minorities and people with disabilities. Learn more about disability inclusion in apprenticeship programs or the updated EEO rules.
