1.1 US Department of Labour Launches Website to Build Artificial Intelligence Skills, Expand AI-Focused Registered Apprenticeship Programs

On April 29, 2026, the U.S. Department of Labour announced the launch of its AI in Registered Apprenticeship Innovation Portal, a one-stop resource for organisations looking to build artificial intelligence literacy and develop AI-focused Registered Apprenticeship programs.

Announced during the National Apprenticeship Week event, “Building the AI-Ready Workforce through Registered Apprenticeship,” the website provides practical tools and actionable guidance to help organisations integrate artificial intelligence skills into Registered Apprenticeship programs through skill-building resources, industry-specific training, and flexible program pathways. The initiative builds on the objectives outlined in the department’s AI Literacy Framework, released earlier this year.

“The department is committed to ensuring that every American has the opportunity to thrive in our nation’s workforce, especially in a world that is rapidly being reshaped by artificial intelligence.”

said Acting Secretary of Labour Keith Sonderling.

“Today, we are unveiling a new AI in the Registered Apprenticeship Innovation Portal that provides practical tools and resources to promote the integration of artificial intelligence skills into Registered Apprenticeship programs, marking a major step forward in preparing the American workforce for the jobs of the future.”

The online portal showcases how understanding, using and evaluating AI tools responsibly is essential for improving productivity, work quality and adaptability in today’s economy.

The site’s resources are organised around three key areas:

(a) AI Skills and Literacy in Registered Apprenticeship – Learn what AI literacy is, access general AI training resources, and discover how Registered Apprenticeship can help build AI competency across your organisation.

(b) AI Skills Building by Industry – Explore AI skill-building training modules tailored to specific occupations and industries, including education, finance, healthcare, advanced manufacturing, and more.

(c) Three Options to Integrate AI in Registered Apprenticeship Programs – Join an existing National Registered Apprenticeship program, create a new program for AI-focused roles, or update an existing program to include AI skills.

“The launch reflects this Administration’s commitment to ensuring American workers and businesses are equipped to lead in an AI-driven economy,”

said Assistant Secretary for Employment and Training Henry Mack.

“By providing employers with the resources to develop AI-ready Registered Apprenticeship programs and workers with the skills to thrive in them, the Department is taking concrete action to build the workforce of the future.
