FRANKFORT, Ky. — Kentucky launched an initiative to include public service apprenticeships as part of the Kentucky Personnel Cabinet job classification system last year, becoming one of the first states in the nation to implement such a program. Friday, Education and Workforce Development Cabinet Secretary Derrick Ramsey hosted a roundtable discussion to highlight civil service apprenticeships and share findings from the Urban Institute report entitled “Leading by Example: Public Sector Apprenticeships in Kentucky.”
