The McAllen Youth Apprenticeship Program, powered by the McAllen Chamber, South Texas College, and McAllen Independent School District, is a vehicle for talent development that we are offering to meet your future workforce needs. The program creates a crucial recruitment pipeline, decreases costly turnover, and molds and shapes potential employees trained to your specifications.

For youth participating in the program, it provides classroom education, on the job training, and wages.  The program brings all the essential elements together to drive success in talent development and workforce training.
