Long Island Celebrates Apprenticeship in Manufacturing
11/18/21 Brentwood, NY: To meet the growing need for a skilled workforce, New York State Department of Labor, SUNY Suffolk, and IgniteLI, have partnered to bring Registered Apprenticeship to Long Island Manufacturers.
In a public/private partnership, the SUNY Apprenticeship Program will assist in developing Registered Apprenticeships in Advanced Manufacturing here on Long Island.
As an approved apprenticeship related-instruction (RI) provider, Suffolk County Community College’s Advanced Manufacturing Training Center supports Long Island manufacturing with instruction in Advanced Manufacturing for the following trades:
CNC Machinist
Electro-Mechanical Technician
Industrial Manufacturing Technician
Maintenance Mechanic (Automation Equipment)
Quality Assurance Auditor
The Apprenticeship Program is an employer-driven program through the New York State Department of Labor (NYSDOL), where companies may be eligible to get the related-instruction portion of an apprenticeship covered.

“Apprenticeship programs offer students the educational opportunities and hands-on experience they need to prepare them for the jobs of the future,” Governor Cuomo said. See Press Release for more information.
The New York College Apprenticeship Network is paid for by a $7.9 million grant from the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, administered by The Research Foundation for the State University of New York. suny.edu/apprenticeship and labor.ny.gov/apprenticeship.
