Apex Grads | Tech Apprenticeship Opportunity
We are a couple weeks away from launching the first nationally accredited IT ServiceNow apprenticeship program.
Our employer partner has opened up multiple positions in Raleigh for an IT Service Management Apprenticeship with a focus on training around the ServiceNow platform. This will be a ground-breaking first for Raleigh.
We are hoping to get the word out soon because pre-employment training begins on November 9th. Eligible apprentices must be high school graduates that have not completed an associate or bachelor's degree yet. They also need 2 years or more work experience (any full-time or part-time work experience). This is a degree apprenticeship that puts apprentices on the path to earn their bachelor degree 100% paid for by the employer while earning full time compensation.
