I Build America - Ohio

Sometimes, money talks. Over their careers, workers who followed an apprenticeship pathway to construction made nearly $300,000 more than peers who did not complete an apprenticeship. Earn while you learn -- and then keep on earning! #NAW2024 #ibuildamerica

Apprentices aren't the only ones to benefit from apprenticeship programs: employers often retain their apprentices, leading to higher return on investment of time, resources, and labor skills. #NAW2024 #ibuildamerica

By engaging with a variety of students and young professionals across various socioeconomic statuses, genders, races, and ability, apprenticeships are helping industries like construction to encourage equity and inclusion. #NAW2024 #ibuildamerica

Want a nearly guaranteed path to a job? Apprenticeships are the way! 94% of all apprentices retain their employment after completing the program. This makes sense: apprentices are trained, paid, and prepared for success in their trades. #NAW2024 #ibuildamerica

Data shows that apprentices often earn more than their peers who did not take the same pathway. Wages may vary based on profession, but on average, apprentices are better off...plus they have the training and skills needed to excel in their careers. #NAW2024 #ibuildamerica
