The Garrett County Apprenticeship Program is registered with the Maryland Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation (DLLR) as a Maryland Apprenticeship and Training Program (MATP) and serves Disconnected Youth in the county ages 18-24. Garrett County training is provided by Maryland Area Health Education Center West (AHEC West) with coursework for the educational component entitled “Dynamics in the Workplace Readiness” provided by Garrett College. The goal is to increase employee sponsorships, identify additional career tracks, and increase Disconnected/Opportunity Youth recruitment with consideration of eventual expansion into the nearby counties of Allegany and Washington.
