The Employment and Training Administration (ETA) of the U.S. Department of Labor is soliciting applications for the Apprenticeship Building America, Round 2 (ABA2) grant program, aimed at expanding and strengthening the Registered Apprenticeship system. This initiative seeks to support public and private partnerships across various industries, focusing on three key categories: equitable pathways to apprenticeship, education system-aligned pre-apprenticeships, and the establishment of Registered Apprenticeship Hubs. With an estimated total program funding of $95 million and awards ranging from $1 million to $8 million, the ETA plans to grant approximately 18 awards. Interested applicants must submit their proposals electronically by April 15, 2024, and can direct inquiries to ABA2_FOA-ETA-24-04@dol.gov for further information.
