WORK EXPERIENCE COMPONENT: PRE-APPRENTICESHIP Description of the component. Provide a summary of the activities and services. Climb partners with industry leaders to provide the basic and technical skills necessary to enter an apprenticeship program and to improve their employability and enable participants to move promptly into regular employment supplemented with a curriculum and instruction. These activities are conducted in a structured workplace environment that includes sustained interactions with the industry. These activities foster in-depth firsthand engagement with the tasks required in a given career field. These activities must have specific training objectives (i.e., goals for what a participant is expected to learn and be able to do by the completion of the training). A pre-apprenticeship must operate in compliance with all applicable labor laws, not displace or replace existing employment of individuals not participating in E&T and provide the same benefits and working conditions as non-E&T participants doing comparable work for comparable hours. DADS and ESGW do not offer this component. Is this component subsidized by SNAP E&T? Subsidized Unsubsidized Both subsidized and unsubsidized Indicate the Target Population this component will serve.
