What’s in it

This bill provides that an apprenticeship sponsor or lead apprenticeship sponsor that conducts an apprenticeship program registered with the United States department of labor, office of apprenticeship, through Iowa, for apprentices who will be employed at worksites located in Iowa may apply to the department of workforce development for financial assistance if the apprenticeship program includes a minimum of contact hours per apprentice for the first training year of an apprenticeship program and 100 contact hours per apprentice for each full training year of the apprenticeship program thereafter. Under current law, the required time period is a minimum of 100 contact hours per apprentice for each training year of the apprenticeship program.
