Apprenticeship in Healthcare
About
The healthcare industry is increasingly using Registered Apprenticeship Programs (RAPs) to educate and upskill thousands of workers. Today, RAPs are used in a wide range of healthcare occupations, including certified nursing assistants (CNAs), registered nurses (RNs), behavioral health technicians, substance use disorder professionals, medical coders, medical technicians, and more. This page offers tools, program examples, and other resources that can be used to expand RAPs in healthcare.
