U.S. Department of Labor AI Skills in Registered Apprenticeships Initiative

An April 2026 U.S. Department of Labor announcement of a national contracting opportunity to integrate artificial intelligence skills into Registered Apprenticeship programs. The Employment and Training Administration initiative seeks to expand AI-related training, modernize apprenticeship programs, and build AI literacy and technical skills across industries, aligning with the department's AI Literacy Framework and the Make America AI-Ready initiative.

Why I recommend it: If you want to move into AI-adjacent work without a four-year degree, Registered Apprenticeships are one of the few earn-while-you-learn paths, and this initiative is the signal that AI skills are now part of that pipeline. Watch your state's apprenticeship sponsor list for AI-related openings.

Morgan Stanley Finance Academy 2026–2027: Applications Open

A flyer announcing applications for the Morgan Stanley Finance Academy, a finance training programme for high school students run with PASE.

Why I recommend it: A single flyer, so it may not cover everything — check deadlines and eligibility with the organizers. Sponsored by Morgan Stanley, which uses it to build its own talent pipeline.

BofA to Hire 1,000 Additional Apprentices and Invest $150 Million in Workforce Development

Bank of America's September 2026 press release announcing 1,000 more paid apprenticeships and a $150 million workforce-development commitment across the US.

Why I recommend it: This is the bank's own press release, so it presents the program in the best light — but the numbers are checkable, and the apprenticeships are real paid roles.

Three-Year Bachelor's Degrees — Jobs for the Future

JFF's explainer on three-year bachelor's degree programs: how schools are redesigning degrees around fewer credits and clearer career outcomes, which accreditors have approved them, and what the model could mean for cost and time-to-degree.

Why I recommend it: Worth reading before you or someone you advise commits to a four-year price tag. JFF is a workforce nonprofit with its own agenda around shorter pathways, so treat the optimism as advocacy — but the accreditation facts and school examples check out.

NAWDP Resources Hub

The resource hub of the National Association of Workforce Development Professionals: toolkits, training opportunities, webinars and certification information for people who work in workforce development, employment services and career coaching.

Why I recommend it: This is for practitioners rather than job seekers — useful if you coach, run programs or work in an employment services agency. The hub pages are open to read, but a number of the toolkits, recordings and the certification track sit behind membership, so expect a login wall part-way in. Ask them what membership costs before you commit.

Operation Spark

A New Orleans-based coding school. The Prep course — three weeks of JavaScript basics, taught live online — is free and open to complete beginners, and is the entry point to everything else they run. The longer adult workforce programme and the High School to High Wage track follow on from it.

Why I recommend it: Start with the free Prep course and nothing else. It is free and it answers the only question that matters early on: do you actually like this work? The longer workforce program is not free — ask them directly what it costs and what the financing terms are before you commit, and treat their published average starting salary as their own marketing figure, not a promise.

Candid Learning

Free training and sample documents for nonprofit and fundraising work from Candid: recorded courses on proposal writing and project budgets, plus real sample cover letters, letters of inquiry, proposal budgets and full funded proposals you can read end to end.

Why I recommend it: The sample full proposals are the part worth your time — reading three funded proposals teaches more than any course on how to write one. Useful well beyond nonprofits: the structure (need, plan, budget, how you will show it worked) is the same structure a grant or pitch wants from a small business.
