The Ahnapee Apprenticeship program in Door and Kewaunee counties will host a virtual event next week to connect companies with students and possibly future employees.  The first-ever virtual Employer Expo will be Tuesday, March 9, at 10 am.  Over three dozen employers have signed up, and Youth Apprenticeship Coordinator for Door County Erin O'Toole says getting students involved in the local workforce early is essential.

Consortium Director Jen Johnson says the Employer Expo's virtual format will be interactive and still give businesses a chance to showcase their industries and operations.

The Youth Apprenticeship program integrates school-based learning to instruct students in employability and occupational skills defined by Wisconsin industries.
