Training is free to the participant. AWP's programmes are grant funded by the Alaska Department of Labor & Workforce Development and the U.S. Department of Labor; the site publishes no tuition, and no federal student aid is involved.
Career Outcomes
AWP states that each year over 50% of new Alaska building trades apprentices have taken classes through AWP, and its Apprenticeship Outreach and Rural Apprenticeship Outreach programmes help participants apply to Alaska's registered construction apprenticeships. No wage or placement rate is published for an individual class, so none is recorded.
