February 4 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Dear Workforce Colleagues,
You’re invited to join the Foundation for California Community Colleges and the Employment Training Panel (ETP) for an engaging training series designed to help workforce and apprenticeship stakeholders understand and leverage ETP to strengthen their programs.
The series includes two live webinars and an in-person convening this spring. It begins with an overview of ETP and its benefits for diverse workforce entities, then explores how ETP can be leveraged for apprenticeship strategies, and concludes with hands-on guidance for application planning and timelines. Through these sessions, participants will:
· Gain a clear understanding of ETP’s role in workforce development and apprenticeship programs
· Gain clarity around common questions or misconceptions about ETP
· Learn how to use ETP as a resource for long-term program sustainability
More information about the specific sessions is included below. We encourage you to register for the webinars now and mark your calendar for the in-person convening. You are welcome to attend any or all components of the series.
