Apprenticeship combines employment, education and training in one workforce program. Employers and their employees develop, register and operate apprenticeship programs based on the needs of industry. Registered apprenticeship is governed by the Washington State Apprenticeship and Training Council (WSATC) under the authority of and .

Apprenticeship Training Committees (ATC) run apprenticeship programs for various trades as approved by the WSATC. Acceptance into an apprenticeship program is determined by the program鈥檚 selection procedures. Two primary components include provisions for an employer/employee relationship with paid on-the-job training for a specific occupation and at least 144 clock hours of related supplemental (classroom) instruction per year. On-the-job training experiences are conducted under the direct supervision of a qualified journeyman who is affiliated with the apprentice鈥檚 trade or program. Classroom instruction provides an opportunity to acquire knowledge and skills that supplement on-the-job training and work experience.

黑料社 is a partner in the Registered Apprentice system and provides or supports the related supplemental classroom instruction when requested by an apprenticeship program. All related supplemental instruction courses will be assessed for the appropriateness of awarding college level credit and documented on student transcripts. 黑料社, as defined in , will grant as many credits as possible and appropriate, for related supplemental instruction in active state apprenticeship programs, within six years of the program's registration (or by the 2028-29 school year for programs registered during or before July 1st of 2022).
