A short overview to help you better understand and use the book. Starts on Page 1. Part I: Overview of Apprenticeships. Part I is an overview of apprenticeship-what it is, where the opportunities are, what the requirements are, what the pros and cons are, and where to find out more. This section may clear up some misunderstandings you have about apprenticeship, and it will help you appreciate what apprenticeship has to offer you. Starts on Page X. Part II: Master List of Nationally Registered Apprenticeships. This part lists all 876 apprenticeships that are currently registered with the U.S. Department of Labor. The apprenticeships are grouped according to interest fields, so you can easily find those in industries that appeal to you. Starts on Page X. Part III: The Best Jobs Lists: Jobs You Can Enter Through Apprenticeship. The 34 lists in Part III show you the best apprenticeable jobs in terms of high salaries, fast growth, and plentiful job openings. You can also see which jobs are best when these factors are combined. Further lists classify the jobs according to their interest fields and several other features, such as jobs with the highest percentage of women and of men. Although there are a lot of lists, they are easy to understand because they have clear titles and are organized into groupings of related lists. Starts on Page X. Part IV: The Job Descriptions. This part provides a brief but information-packed description of each of the 250 apprenticeable jobs that met our criteria for high pay, fast growth, or many openings.
