Apprenticeships help the overall labor market by fostering a culture where employers see the value in investing in their employees, and individuals, in turn, feel committed to their employers and are incentivized to remain and grow with their employer. Further, knowledge is continually handed down from expert journeypersons to individuals entering their field, providing a consistently skilled labor force in high-demand and highly technical fields.
