Training & Education FAQs

Q:
Our institution has been approached from multiple entities such as workforce boards, intermediaries, Sponsors, USDOL, and State apprenticeship agencies to partner or sponsor an Apprenticeship Program. We are not in the Apprenticeship arena and need help on how we can navigate through all the “Apprenticeship” noise. How can Apprenticeship Management Solutions assist?
A:

Many educational institutions and training organizations have primarily shied away from the Apprenticeship systems for several reasons, one being the perception that apprenticeship is for the trades and not for certificate or degree seeking individuals. Fast forward to the last 5 to 10 years and there has been a push both at the national level as well as the state level to integrate higher education institutions within the apprenticeship system. Unfortunately, many institutions are woefully unprepared for this challenge. Apprenticeship Management Solutions can help any educational or training organization navigate through these challenges. Whether the intent is to Sponsor, be strictly an apprentice education provider, or provide a venue for multiple Sponsors to use the institution and host their training needs. In any scenario, Apprenticeship Management Solutions would be dedicated to help your institution provide vital services to your community.

I am an Automotive Dealership Director. I handle the Service, Parts, and Collision Departments at our Dealership. It is always a challenge to recruit new candidates to enter the Automotive Mechanical and Auto Body Technician fields. There is a huge shortage of Automotive Technicians and Auto Body Techs and Painters. We all need to be recruiting 24/7. A few years ago we started an Apprentice Program with Daytona State College with help from Ted Norman. (While he was employed by the state) I was a “fish out of water” dealing with all of the apprentice and grant paperwork and ongoing reporting. I just wanted to do what I do best! So when Ted joined the Public Consulting Group, and he offered their services…. I jumped on it! Ted’s group makes it almost “hands off” for me. We keep in contact during each semester to review progress and for me to let him know of additional apprentices. I couldn’t imagine handling all of our apprentices paperwork and progress and still do my job!

As Vice President of iBuild Central Florida, I have had the privilege of working with Ted Norman, Business and Implementation Manager for PCG, on numerous projects. Ted has consistently over-delivered, bringing unmatched expertise and dedication to every initiative. His deep knowledge and experience in the world of Registered Apprenticeships have been invaluable to our organization. Ted is an outstanding resource, and I highly recommend him and PCG for any specialized support your organization may need. His commitment to excellence truly sets him apart.

Here at The Porch Factory LLC we manufacture and install custom pool enclosures and screen rooms. We have been training our own installers for several years, doing an ok job. In 2023 we realized we needed a more specific program, that we could clearly administer that gave a clear more detailed training process to ensure our new hires received the best training and provided them a path that they (the new hires) could see and follow. We worked with Ted from the Public Consulting Group and they have provided us with a customized system that met our current and future needs. We are currently running the system with 4 in house apprentices and PCG made it possible.
