According to a recent report by The Tennessee Comptroller’s Office of Research and Education Accountability (OREA), Tennessee's apprentice population has nearly doubled from 2014 to 2023, with a major boost since 2021. The state now has over 8,400 active apprentices across 914 programs, led by the construction and manufacturing industries. The growth is driven by the creation of the Office of Apprenticeship and the Apprenticeship TN initiative. In East Tennessee, the region's strong manufacturing base has significantly contributed to this growth, ensuring a skilled workforce to meet the demands of our thriving industries.
