Proclamation 9676: National Apprenticeship Week, 2017

This Proclamation was issued November 10th. 2017.  I agree with the concept that apprenticeships should be an integrated part of the education system (something that touches the last 2 years of high school and the first 2 years of post secondary education) but there needs to be a lot of discussion on the details of how it will work.  This proclamation does not contain any new initiatives or decision on policy.
