Growing Quality Registered Apprenticeship programs through Industry Intermediaries The U.S. Department of Labor released a Request for Proposal (RFP) announcement to seek the services of multiple offerors to grow Registered Apprenticeships (RA or RAs) in new and high growth industries and occupations through rapid development of programs and quality technical industry expertise.
The following breakdown outlines the industry: RA is new and/or emerging (not traditionally scaled): Agriculture, Energy (including nuclear energy), Defense Industrial Base (including Aerospace/Aviation, Shipbuilding/Maritime, etc.), Education, and Financial and Insurance; RA is existing and in in-demand/critical sectors (established): Healthcare, Telecommunications; Cybersecurity, and Advanced Manufacturing.

The key goals for this award are to: Expand sector based outreach and recruitment to increase awareness of the value of Registered Apprenticeship (RA) programs among employers, industry associations, education partners, workforce systems, and other key stakeholders.
Accelerate the development of registration ready apprenticeship programs by advancing RA Accelerator models, providing technical assistance to employers, and facilitating processes that speed the creation of high-quality RA standards.
Grow degreed Registered Apprenticeship pathways by strengthening partnerships with post‑secondary institutions, integrating RA programs with degree pathways, and supporting the articulation of apprenticeship learning into post‑secondary credit.
Implement business driven, sector based strategies that mobilize industry experts and stakeholders to address barriers, share best practices, and drive the expansion of RA programs in targeted industries.
Promote innovation and long-term sustainability across the RA ecosystem by developing new curricula and occupational frameworks, supplying subject matter expertise, and leveraging partnerships to replicate, expand, and sustain high quality RA programs beyond the life of the contract.
