National Apprenticeship Day
National Apprenticeship Day 2025: April 30, 2025
National Apprenticeship Week (NAW) is a nationwide celebration that brings together business leaders, career seekers, labor, educational institutions, and other critical partners to demonstrate their support for apprenticeship. NAW also provides apprenticeship sponsors with the opportunity to showcase their programs, facilities, and apprentices in their community. The week-long celebration highlights the benefits of apprenticeship in preparing a highly-skilled workforce to meet the talent needs of employers across diverse industries.
USDOL has moved National Apprenticeship Week to the spring in response to stakeholder feedback. To adjust to this new calendar shift, this year we are celebrating National Apprenticeship DAY on April 30, 2025! The week-long celebration will resume in 2026:
- National Apprenticeship Day: April 30, 2025
- April 26-May 2, 2026
Colorado Apprenticeship Month & Awards
November is Colorado Apprenticeship Month which is a statewide celebration that gives businesses, communities, and educators the opportunity to showcase their apprenticeship programs and apprentices while providing valuable information to career seekers. During Apprenticeship Month, we host an Apprenticeship Awards ceremony to honor apprentices, mentors, employers, programs, partners, and champions for their exceptional contributions to Colorado's apprenticeship system. Nominations for the Apprenticeship Awards are open during the month of September.
