CityCouncil | 2016-10-18 | 20 | Mayor Spencer inquired how it is determined who participates in the apprenticeship program. Mr. Slivka responded each apprenticeship program is State certified with specific requirements that need to be met; an apprentice would choose a trade and meet the basic set requirements. Mayor Spencer inquired whether that means students from Alameda schools would be on career pathways. Mr. Slivka responded there could be a career day at the schools; stated the Trade Council could reach out to graduates and get the pathways going to the apprenticeship program. Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft inquired whether she and Mayor Spencer could bring the idea up to the School District since they sit on the subcommittee. Mayor Spencer responded in the affirmative; stated the program is a pilot program and it is critical to collect data to evaluate if the program is working in three years. Mr. Slivka stated the District is also looking to reach goals.
