Statement of Interest

To help prepare a smooth transition into VT’s Registered Apprenticeship for the Child Development Specialist, the first step in the process is to notify the VT Child Care Industry & Careers Council of your willingness to participate in the support system for the Apprenticeship Program. The first step in that process is to submit a Statement of Interest. This informs the Council you wish to participate and provides your educational history and work site experience, which should include a leadership role in the child care program.

In conjunction with the Statement of Interest for the Mentoring Teacher, the Council must also receive similar paperwork from a Child Development Specialist Apprentice and Child Care Program, showing a support team is in place for a 2 year time frame. Upon receipt of all paperwork needed, consultation(s) and site visit(s) will occur to complete the application process through the VT Child Care Industry & Careers Council, the VT Department of Employment and Training, Apprenticeship Division and the US Department of Labor, Bureau of Apprenticeship
