Apprenticeship Maryland Program (AMP)

Students can enter this program in the 11th or 12th grade.

The AMP program is designed to provide students with the opportunity to participate in a paid work-based learning experience while earning credits and completing a graduation pathway. This course takes place at a worksite and must be a paid experience (at least minimum wage). All three courses of WBL experience must cumulate to a minimum of 450 hours. This experience is directed by the WBL agreement provided by the school system and a student work plan developed among the student, WBL coordinator, and eligible employer. The student work plan identifies the appropriate competencies, duties, tasks, and outcomes in academic, technical, and workplace readiness areas that apply directly to the student’s goals for a specific work-related placement. An industry standard credential, as identified by employer and the apprenticeship coordinator must be earned prior to completing the program. This may be earned in a CTE program of study prior to beginning the apprenticeship program.
