Abstract:
The Chief Evaluation Office of the U.S. Department of Labor commissioned the high priority Apprenticeship Evidence-Building Portfolio evaluation contract to build evidence on apprenticeship, including apprenticeship models, practices, and partnership strategies in high-growth occupations and industries. DOL’s initiatives to expand access to apprenticeship opportunities support the Presidential Executive Order “Expanding Apprenticeships in America.” The portfolio of initiatives addressed by the evaluation includes the Scaling Apprenticeship Through Sector-Based Strategies grants, Closing the Skills Gap grants, Youth Apprenticeship Readiness grants, and other DOL investments. The Urban Institute and its partners Mathematica Policy Research and Capital Research Corporation were contracted to conduct the study of these efforts. This package requests clearance for nine data collection instruments for three different studies under the aforementioned Apprenticeship Evidence-Building Portfolio evaluation: 1) an implementation evaluation of the Scaling Apprenticeship and Closing the Skills Gap grants programs to develop typologies of apprenticeship models and practices, identify perceived promising strategies across the portfolio, and to better understand the implementation of models to help interpret impact evaluation findings; 2) an assessment of registered apprenticeship state systems and partnerships to provide important information on their capacity to develop, design, modify, implement, sustain, expand/scale up, and evaluate apprenticeship strategies and models; and 3) an implementation evaluation of the Youth Apprenticeship Readiness grant program to understand service delivery design and implementation, and perceived challenges and promising practices.
