ABC Pelican offers a Registered Apprenticeship Program for several occupations approved by the U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Apprenticeship. Our Registered Apprenticeship Program can help our member companies develop their people and win work that requires registered apprentices, such as clean energy projects receive tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act.
