SUMMARY:Blue Ridge Community College Directors Meeting-Apprenticeship Program
DESCRIPTION:This event is an informational meeting designed for licensed child care facility directors not already participating in an apprenticship program with Blue Ridge Community College. If you have questions please reach out to Heather Erwin at 698-0674 ext 154. \nA meal will be provided. \nAt Apprenticeship Blue Ridge\, we collaborate with employers\, community partners\, and educational providers to identify and close gaps in knowledge\, competencies\, and skills to strengthen our community’s workforce. \nCurrently\, Apprenticeship Blue Ridge provides thirteen apprenticeship pathways\, serving over 250 apprentices to date. 109 apprentices are engaged in on-campus related instruction\, while seventeen apprentices have completed their related instruction and are now fulfilling the required on-the-job training. Our programs have a retention rate of around 90%. \nOur programs thrive due to their streamlined structure. Apprentices attend class one day a week\, enabling them to spend most of their time working with their employers. They represent their employer in class\, get paid for time in class\, and seamlessly integrate their education with real-time on-the-job training. \nBlue Ridge Community College has tapped into its existing strengths and experience with our Early Childhood Education program and created an apprenticeship program that combines these successes. The Early Childhood Education apprentices gain the necessary education and workexperience to become professionals in their field and have the support of not only their employer but also the college in their pursuit of becoming educated working professionals. Upon completion of the program\, apprentices have the option to continue their education with Blue Ridge Community College and can gain their certificate in Early Childhood or their A.A.S degree. \nApprenticeship is a benefit to employers in building not only a talented workforce but a loyal one as well due to the educational investment the employers provide by paying wages for time at work as well as time in class. Apprentices clock in and out on campus just as they would at work and those timestamps are sent to the employers weekly for wage and hour purposes. Communication between the instructor\, coordinator\, and employer is consistent as we know that  apprenticeship cannot be successful without it. \nIn order to be an employer partner with a registered apprenticeship the employer must: \n\nEmploy apprentices full-time.\nPair apprentices with experienced mentors.\nTrain apprentices in all aspects of the occupation.\nOffer a progressive wage scale that consists of at least one pay raise during the course of the apprenticeship program.\nHave a desire to develop a skilled workforce.\n\n  \n

SUMMARY:Child Care Staffing Crisis 101-Kick off
DESCRIPTION:As a child care center owner/director\, you know that staffing is one of the most important aspects of your business. However\, identifying your staffing strengths and weaknesses and understanding your employee competitors can be a daunting task. That’s why we would like to invite you to our upcoming Virtual Kickoff Event with Business of Child Care & Care Connection.. \n  \nThis event is the beginning of an online experience that will help you discover your child care center’s staffing strengths and weaknesses\, your employee competitors\, and your style and culture. Our experienced speakers will guide you through starting a series of exercises that you’ll complete on your own. \n  \nThe experience will culminate in a virtual workshop on March 28\, 2023\, where you will have the opportunity to connect with other child care center business owners and share your experiences along with support on defining your steps to take action. \n  \nThe event will take place on March 7\, 2023 beginning at 6:00PM and is completely virtual\, so you can attend from the comfort of your own home or office. It is an excellent opportunity for you to gain new knowledge and skills that will help you take your child care center to the next level. \n  \nDon’t miss out on this exciting opportunity! Register now! If you have any questions or concerns\, please feel free to contact me. \n  \nWe look forward to seeing you at our Virtual Kickoff Event!
