DOL taps AHA to expand health care apprenticeship programs

The Department of Labor is tapping into the AHA and its professional membership groups to help expand health care apprenticeship programs across the country. As part of a DOL grant announced this week, the Dallas County Community College District has asked the AHA and its PMGs to scale its local apprenticeship programs to a national level. AHA and the PMGs will use funding from the grant to create curricula, training programs and nationally recognized certifications for successful apprentices in clinical and non-clinical health care professions.
