Women in Apprenticeships & Nontraditional Occupations (WANTO) Project Director Stephanie Heiland was recently featured in the Observer Dispatch as a guest columnist! The WANTO grant helps recruit, train, and retain women in quality pre-apprenticeship and apprenticeship programs, and encourages them to pursue apprenticeships and non-traditional occupations. Non-traditional occupations are occupations where women make up 25% or less of the workforce, including but not limited to: trades, information technology (IT), advanced manufacturing, transportation, public safety, agriculture, and more.
