The U.S. Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration (ETA) awarded a $15,426,233.84 definitive time and materials contract to the Tides Center, a nonprofit organization, to expand registered apprenticeship (RA) programs in emerging industries, with a focus on early childhood education. This contract, which has a period of performance from June 2023 to June 2028, was not set aside for a specific business type. The contract requires the Tides Center to conduct outreach, develop standards and competency models, provide registration support, and enroll a minimum of 400 new registered apprentices during the base period and 1,000 total over the first two years. This contract is part of the ETA's efforts to promote the expansion of RA programs in industries that have not traditionally utilized this approach to address talent and occupational needs.
