START YOUR PLANNING FOR NATIONAL APPRENTICESHIP WEEK 2026

NAW 2026 will include apprenticeship events across the country reflecting the theme, “America at Work: Making America Skilled Again Through Registered Apprenticeship,” and advance the Trump Administration’s commitment to strengthening Registered Apprenticeships as the premier, high-quality solution to boost America’s skills development pipeline. As the nation celebrates its 250th year and continues its reindustrialization, the theme reflects Registered Apprenticeship’s prominence as a key strategy to ensure the American worker is equipped for the skilled jobs of today and tomorrow.  Please visit our NAW Resources web page for a host of tools you can use to prepare for #NAW2026.
