Youth apprenticeship is a promising model to build a more inclusive economy by connecting young people of high school age with career opportunities. The Partnership to Advance Youth Apprenticeship (PAYA) is a multi-year initiative that will support efforts in states and cities to expand access to high-quality youth apprenticeships.

Headquartered at the Center on Education & Skills at New America, PAYA is currently leading an effort to better understand the national landscape of youth apprenticeship providers and to gauge interest in expanding youth apprenticeship opportunities nationwide. To do that, we want to hear from you.

Whether you are a current apprenticeship practitioner or just interested in youth apprenticeship, please provide responses for the first set of questions so we can stay in touch. A second set of questions follows for those currently providing or developing youth apprenticeships.
