Building the Next Generation of Teachers Through Apprenticeship

Registered Apprenticeship is an effective "earn and learn" model with a long history of establishing career pathways in growing industries by providing structured, paid, on-the-job learning experiences with a mentor combined with job-related technical instruction that leads to a nationally recognized credential. To learn more about Registered Apprenticeships, visit www.apprenticeship.gov .

Building on the Biden administration’s Good Jobs Initiative, we’re expanding Registered Apprenticeships for educators and investing in quality teacher preparation programs. These efforts started with a joint effort, leadership, and call to action from our departments through a Dear Colleague Letter for education and workforce leaders to address educator shortages, and investments to support developing, expanding and scaling high-quality and affordable pathways into teaching. This call to action aims to ensure teachers have access to increased pay and better working conditions across the early childhood, K-12 and higher education workforce.  

The Department of Labor’s Employment and Training Administration has continued to partner with the Department of Education to make significant investments to develop and scale teacher apprenticeship programs, including: 

We also recently announced the availability of nearly $200 million to support Registered Apprenticeship expansion, prioritizing projects that support the Investing in America agenda by increasing access to Registered Apprenticeships in high-demand sectors and occupations, including K-12 teacher occupations. Strategies to use Registered Apprenticeship to train a next generation of teachers continue to expand, with 37 states and territories now providing K-12 teacher apprenticeship programs, up from just two states in 2022. Today, over 100 K-12 teacher Registered Apprenticeship programs have been registered and over 3,000 K-12 teacher apprentices have been trained. That’s a lot of progress made in just two years! And this administration is committed to ensuring that progress continues. 

To support raising awareness around K-12 teacher Registered Apprenticeships, ETA industry intermediary partner RTI International published a Profile in Educator Registered Apprenticeship Programs report, which explores different program design models, varying target populations, modernized onramps to successful teacher pathways, innovative funding models, and opportunities for degree attainment. 

The report is the first in a series, which ETA will release in partnership with RTI to explore various strategies to expand the use of Registered Apprenticeship to train America’s educators. K-12 teacher Registered Apprenticeship programs will continue to play a key role in increasing pathways to rewarding careers in the education sector, filling vacant positions with high-quality, well-trained teachers, and a focus on diversifying the workforce.  For additional information on any of these programs, please visit Apprenticeship.gov.

Nj labor market indicators mixed in april, for immediate release.

May 16, 2024

TRENTON – The state’s unemployment rate declined by 0.1 percentage point to 4.7 percent in April, and the number of unemployed residents fell to an eight-month low, according to preliminary labor market estimates produced by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The monthly report also shows total nonfarm employment in the state fell by 10,900 jobs to a seasonally adjusted level of 4,374,400.

Revised estimates of total nonfarm employment in March saw a downward revision of 1,300 for a February-to-March monthly gain of 12,500. The state’s unemployment rate for March remained unchanged at 4.8 percent.

In April, six out of nine private industries recorded losses for the month. They were: leisure and hospitality (-8,900), professional and business services (-2,600), manufacturing (-1,000), information (-700), financial activities (-700), and other services (-700). Sectors that added jobs for the month were trade, transportation, and utilities (+2,400), construction (+300), and private education and health services (+200). Public sector jobs increased by 800 in April.

Over the past 12 months, New Jersey has added 76,000 nonfarm jobs. Some 87 percent of those gains were in the private sector, with six out of nine private sector industries recording a gain between April 2023 and April 2024. These industries are: private education and health services (+40,300), trade, transportation, and utilities (+12,100), construction (+5,400), other services (+5,000), leisure and hospitality (+3,700), and professional and business services (+3,300). Sectors that recorded losses were information (-2,200), manufacturing (-800), and financial activities (-600). The public sector recorded a gain of 9,700 over the past 12 months.

Preliminary BLS data for May will be released on June 20.

PRESS TABLES  

Technical Notes:  Estimates of industry employment and unemployment levels are arrived at through the use of two different monthly surveys.  

Industry employment data are derived through the Current Employment Statistics (CES) survey, a monthly survey of approximately 4,000 business establishments conducted by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) of the U.S. Department of Labor, which provides estimates of employment, hours, and earnings data broken down by industry for the nation as a whole, all states and most major metropolitan areas (often referred to as the “establishment” survey). 

Resident employment and unemployment data are mainly derived from the New Jersey portion of the national Current Population Survey (CPS), a household survey conducted each month by the U.S. Census Bureau under contract with BLS, which provides input to the Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) program (often referred to as the “household” survey).  

Both industry and household estimates are revised each month based on additional information from updated survey reports compiled by the BLS. In addition, these estimates are benchmarked (revised) annually based on actual counts from New Jersey’s Unemployment Compensation Law administrative records and more complete data from all New Jersey employers.  

Effective with the release of January 2018 estimates, the Current Employment Statistics (CES) program has converted to concurrent seasonal adjustment, which uses all available estimates, including those for the current month, in developing seasonal factors. Previously, the CES program developed seasonal factors once a year during the annual benchmark process. For more information on concurrent seasonal adjustment in the CES State and Area program, see  https://www.bls.gov/sae/seasonal-adjustment/ .

Education Dept. Extends Deadline to Consolidate Loans for Forgiveness

Borrowers with commercially held loans will now have until June 30 to take steps to make their loans eligible for elimination.

By Stacy Cowley

More than two weeks after a deadline passed for federal loan borrowers seeking debt relief, the Education Department has extended the offer, giving millions of borrowers a fresh shot at aid.

The department said on Wednesday that borrowers would now have until June 30 to consolidate commercially held education debt under the Federal Family Education Loan Program — loans originally from private lenders — or Perkins loans into new direct loans, which are held by the Education Department. That consolidation is a required step for borrowers to receive relief through an expansive, but temporary, government waiver program intended to wipe out the remaining debt for borrowers who have been making payments for a term that’s typically at least 20 years.

“The department is working swiftly to ensure borrowers get credit for every month they’ve rightfully earned toward forgiveness,” said James Kvaal, the under secretary of education. The previous deadline to consolidate was April 30.

The move is part of the Biden administration’s effort to aggressively cancel education debts through longstanding relief programs and by easing bureaucratic barriers. One of the trickiest challenges has been reaching borrowers with loans through the Federal Family Education Loan Program, a lingering vestige of a previous federal student loan system.

Before 2010, many federal loans were insured by the government but issued by private lenders like banks and other financial institutions. That year, the government took over the system and began making loans directly; it now holds $1.4 trillion in debt for loans to nearly 38 million people.

But millions of people still have loans made under the Federal Family Education Loan system. As of the end of April, according to Education Department data, there were still 3.5 million federal student loans owned by private lenders.

Borrowers with those loans are ineligible for most federal student debt forgiveness programs. However, they can consolidate the loans into a new, federally owned direct student loan. People can see what kind of loan they have, and consolidate into a new one , at StudentAid.gov .

Consolidating commercially held loans into a direct loan makes those borrowers eligible to benefit from a temporary government program that counts many past payments — or lengthy periods of forbearance — as qualifying ones for income-driven repayment programs , even for people who never enrolled in those programs.

Nearly one million borrowers have had $49 billion of debt eliminated through that temporary program, the Education Department said. In total, the Biden administration’s changes have led to $160 billion in debt elimination for nearly 4.6 million borrowers.

Also on Wednesday, the department said it would need more time than it had anticipated to finish those income-driven repayment adjustments. The process, which began last summer and was previously scheduled to be finished by July, will now take until September to complete, the department said. The adjustments are done automatically by the department — borrowers do not need to apply to have their loans included in the program.

State Education Department Awards $34M in Universal Prekindergarten Expansion Grants

64 school districts to receive funding, grants will expand full-day prek opportunities for four-year-old students .

The New York State Education Department awarded $34 million in Universal Prekindergarten (UPK) Expansion Grants to 64 school districts across the state, Commissioner Betty A. Rosa announced today. The grants will enable districts to establish new full-day prekindergarten placements or to convert existing placements from half- to full-day.  

Regents Chancellor Lester W. Young, Jr. said, "When children enroll in high-quality and effective PreK programs, they gain a significant advantage in early skills that prepare them for success in elementary school. Expanding access to full-day PreK programs through these grants will help more of New York’s children succeed."

Commissioner Rosa said, “When we provide equitable opportunities for children in their early years, they reap the benefits throughout their lives. The Department is deeply committed to providing a strong educational foundation to every single child in New York – because that is what each of them deserves.”

All public-school districts in New York State were eligible to apply for this competitive grant opportunity. Grants were awarded based upon a district’s plan to serve a community’s highest need schools and students; the level of existing prekindergarten services; the extent to which a district planned to maximize the total number of eligible four-year-old children served in its programs; and other factors. Awarded school districts will be able to operate a 180-day program during the 2024-2025 school year.

The following school districts were awarded funding under the grant program:
