What are apprenticeships and why does tech need them? Join our panel of technologists for an inspiring discussion about employer-led apprenticeship programs and how they allow companies to take a two-pronged approach to hiring: continuing recruiting highly skilled people while also growing high-potential people into skilled employees. 

In today's hiring market, a failure to invest in growing skills in-house will result in decreased retention, decreased productivity, and higher expenses. Learn how to effectively implement an apprenticeship program and what it takes to maintain one for optimal company success.
