We're excited to announce that we have received funding from the New York State Department of Labor (NYSDOL) under the Direct Entry Pre-Apprenticeship (DEPA) Program to expand the Real Life Rosies and Advance 2 Apprenticeship direct entry pre-apprenticeship programs to Onondaga and Oswego counties! 📢📢 We'll be partnering with employers, education providers, and community-based organizations, such as Berry Global, Inc.; Constellation; Giovanni Food Company, Inc.; JMA Wireless; N.E.T. & Die; Cayuga Community College; Onondaga Community College; Refugee and Immigrant Self- Empowerment (RISE); the Oswego Workforce Development Board; and others. The Real Life Rosies program was launched in the Mohawk Valley in collaboration with Mohawk Valley Community College (MVCC); The Workforce Development Board, Herkimer, Madison, Oneida Counties, Inc.; and community partners, with funding from Empire State Development’s Office of Strategic Workforce Development. 💪⚙️ Real Life Rosies is the first NYSDOL approved direct entry pre-apprenticeship program in New York State for advanced manufacturing. The program supports the training and skill development of women and individuals in underrepresented populations looking to pursue careers in advanced manufacturing. Through company tours and guaranteed job interviews, the program helps connect employers with skilled and job-ready individuals.
