Please join the Urban Institute and Franklin Apprenticeships for the third annual Transatlantic Apprenticeship Exchange Forum on Tuesday, November 14, during National Apprenticeship Week. The forum will address the idea of the “moonshot” to create 5 million apprenticeships in the US. Apprenticeship and industry leaders in the United States and the United Kingdom will discuss practical means by which quality apprenticeships can be expanded through initiatives in marketing, financing, developing occupational standards, and other solutions.
The program will begin promptly at 9:00 a.m., with breakfast served at 8:30 a.m. and lunch served at 1:00 p.m. For inquiries regarding this event, please contact events@urban.org.
