Become a Registered Apprenticeship Sponsor

Mission / Purpose

The Central Virginia Apprenticeship Council (CVAC) strives to assist employers in establishing and maintaining a robust registered apprenticeship program (RAP) in order to provide a regenerative pipeline of qualified workers. This will be accomplished, in part, by:

Acting as the voice of the local construction and service contractors to influence local governmental and private agencies to deliver best in class related technical instruction;
Promoting the benefits of a career in the construction trades, that begins with a foundation built through the apprenticeship program in the local community; and to
Provide guidance and assistance to the contracting and private employer community in developing their own registered apprenticeship programs.
