Apprenticeship database unavailable June 1 to 12, 2023

Apprenticeship Minnesota is currently transitioning to the RAPIDS database. Registered apprenticeship programs will not be able to use the current apprenticeship database from noon on Thursday, June 1, 2023, through 9 a.m. Monday, June 12, 2023. RAPIDS will be available for use at 9 a.m. on Monday, June 12, 2023.

RAPIDS training for program sponsors

Apprenticeship Minnesota is partnering with the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Apprenticeship to update and modernize Minnesota’s registered apprenticeship data tracking system that sponsors use to register and complete apprentices within their program. As a result of this partnership, we are transitioning to a new database called RAPIDS (Registered Apprenticeship Partners Information Database System) over the next several months. Learn more and sign up for RAPIDS training.
