Using a scenario with a 70% reimbursement aid rate and a $35,000 annual expense per apprentice, I demonstrate how costs can be offset by the apprentice&apos;s ability to substitute teach. Ultimately, this results in a net annual cost of just $8,000, which is an incredible value for the benefits provided. I encourage you to consider these figures when discussing apprenticeship programs in your district.</description></oembed>
