The Educator’s Guide to Youth Apprenticeships offers best practices and real-world solutions for high school leaders and administrators developing youth apprenticeship programs. College isn’t the only pathway to success. What about students who want or need to graduate high school debt-free, with in-demand skills and a salary already on their resumes? Through data-driven approaches and powerful stories of students thriving in trades, this book prepares educators to pilot and sustain youth apprenticeships, partner with local employers, and scale their efforts with minimal bureaucracy. High school principals, superintendents, counselors, career and technical educators, district leaders, and policymakers will come away empowered to help close the skills gap through the emerging model of work-based learning.

Heather Handler leads Career and Technical Education, STEM, Youth Apprenticeships, and Robotics programs in a Maryland school district. A former educator in Computer Science, Engineering, and Science, Dr. Handler has spearheaded district-wide programs in youth apprenticeships, robotics, and hospitality to bridge the gap between secondary education and industry.
