This episode features an Inside Higher Ed newsroom discussion about a five-part series on registered apprenticeships. Underwritten by Ascendium, the six-month project saw the team battling hailstorms in Missouri, visiting factories in upstate New York and embedding themselves with learners on the job in South Carolina. What emerged is a clear picture of the American apprenticeship, distinct from decades-old European models, and how higher ed institutions can play a greater role in these pathways to careers.

Editor in chief Sara Custer is joined by Colleen Flaherty, senior editor for special content, senior report Sara Weissman, digital producer Justin Morrison, and Johanna Alonso IHE’s reporter for admissions and enrollment.
