Identify, Recruit, and Retain Untapped Talent Through Apprenticeship: Case Study and Resources

The VP of Chekr.org, Ken Oliver, emphasizes the power of apprenticeships in supporting justice-impacted individuals in gaining in-demand skills and accessing meaningful employment opportunities. AsanaUP, a successful apprenticeship program by San Francisco-based tech company Asana, has hired over 80 apprentices since its inception in 2019. The secret to their success lies in setting clear expectations, providing support, and offering regular feedback, resulting in an 82% conversion rate of apprentices to full-time employees. To get started with an apprenticeship program, organizations can explore free and sponsored resources, subsidies, and incentives available through government agencies, community colleges, industry associations, and private firms. By implementing apprenticeships, companies can not only source highly qualified talent but also contribute to a more diverse workforce, boost DEI efforts, and strengthen their economy.
