State apprenticeship registration in Texas

Texas is listed under the federal Office of Apprenticeship (OA) on apprenticeship.gov. OA field offices register and oversee programs where there is no recognized SAA (OA may also register some programs in SAA states).

How to apply

Public DOL / apprenticeship.gov framing only. We do not invent openings, wages, or application windows.

  1. Shortlist sponsors on this page

    Use the top sponsors and full list below. Trade tags are keyword matches on organization names - ask which occupations they actually train.

  2. Cross-check on official tools

    Search the same organization name on apprenticeship.gov and the apprenticeship job finder (add city/state if the name is common). Prefer official tools when listings differ.

  3. Confirm registration and occupation

    Ask whether the program is registered, which occupations are open, and whether they hire first or accept public applications. Listing here ≠ an opening.

  4. Ask for standards in writing

    Request starting wage schedule, related-instruction schedule, tools you must buy, and probation rules before you treat a row as a plan.

  5. Double-check before anyone applies

    Parents/counselors: counselor kit and find a registered apprenticeship. Re-check apprenticeship.gov the day you apply.
