The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:(a) Career technical education is critical to meeting the states workforce needs.(b) If current trends continue, roughly one-third of new jobs in the state will require some training beyond high school but less than a four-year degree.(c) In California there are 75,000 apprentices today.

This creates an unnecessary financial burden, and may discourage individuals from pursuing an apprenticeship that leads to a high-paying career.(d)(i) An apprenticeship grant would be valuable to (1) provide students with supplemental income and to encourage them to obtain apprenticeships in their fields of study; and (2) to provide incentives for employers and programs to seek out apprentices and provide on-the-job training in career technical education.SEC. 2.Article 6.5 (commencing with Section 69439.5) is added to Chapter 1.7 of Part 42 of Division 5 of Title 3 of the Education Code, to read:SEC. 2.
