Apprenticeships in healthcare

Looking for a career where you can train on the job and have a good path for advancement? Healthcare may be the right field for you.

Healthcare is facing a shortage of workers at the same time that demand for services is growing rapidly.

That means hospitals, nursing homes, and other healthcare employers are looking for good candidates—and they’re often willing to train them via apprenticeships or similar programs.

What’s apprenticeship?

Apprenticeship is a career pathway that allows you to earn and learn at the same time. It combines a paid job with on-the-job training. It’s a great way to start your career and build your skillset. Learn more at Apprenticeship.gov.
