Eligible Training Provider List (ETPL) – Pre-Apprenticeship and Apprenticeship Providers
These are entities that carry out a training program registered under the National Apprenticeship Act.
Pre-apprenticeship providers must have a letter of commitment from a Department of Labor (DOL) registered or Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) Division of Apprenticeship Standards (DAS) approved apprenticeship program. They must also award an industry-recognized credential or certificate.
Apprenticeship providers are exempt from eligibility requirements, as long as they are registered with either DOL or DIR/DAS. Apprenticeship training program providers are required to go through the DAS for inclusion on the ETPL. If training provider is a DOL Registered Apprenticeship or DIR/DAS approved apprenticeship, then the state ETPL coordinator will refer to Employment Development Department (EDD) for inclusion on the ETPL. The DIR website provides more information (https://www.dir.ca.gov/das/educators.htm).
