PURPOSE:

These amendments align the rules with the following Code of Federal Regulations (CFR):  29 CFR Section 29.2 - Definitions; 29 CFR Section 29.3 - Eligibility and Procedure for Apprenticeship Program Registrations; 29 CFR Section 29.5 - Standards of Apprenticeship; 29 CFR Section 29.7 - Apprenticeship Agreement; 29 CFR Section 29.8 - Deregistration of Department Registered Program; 29 CFR Section 29.12 - Complaints; 29 CFR Section 29.9 - Reinstatement of Program Registration; 29 CFR Section 29.6 - Program Performance Standards. Theses amendments will also serve as a catalyst for compliance with Federal Regulation 29 CFR Part 29, Labor Standards for the Registration of Apprentieship Programs, and 29 CFR Part 30, Equal Employment in Apprenticeship, leading to full recognition from the U.S. Dept. of Labor, Office of Apprenticeship as the state approving agency for federal purposes.

SUMMARY:

The Department is legislatively responsible for the development of apprenticeship and pre-apprenticeship standards for apprenticeable occupations. Part of that responsibility is to contract with the United States Department of Labor to serve as the registration agency for federal apprenticeship registration purposes. The technical revisions, updated and added language to the various rules are to keep pace with the revisions and updates to Federal Regulation 29 CFR Part 29, Apprenticeship Programs, and 29 CFR Part 30, Equal Employment in Apprenticeship in order to remain in compliance as the approved registration agency.
