  1. The LWIB may establish an OJT contract with an employer that has a registered apprenticeship program, but only the OJT hours are eligible for wage reimbursement through the OJT portion of the program.
  2. Individual Training Accounts (ITAs) and OJT funds may be combined to support placing participants into a registered apprenticeship program, just as they can be used together for a participant who is not in a registered apprenticeship. 
    1. The LWIB may choose to set the duration or a financial limit on ITAs and OJTs for apprenticeships as defined in the LWIB policy for such programs.
    2. An ITA may support the classroom portions of the apprenticeship program, and OJT funds may only support the on-the-job training portions of the program.
  3. Depending on the length of the registered apprenticeship and local OJT policies, WIOA OJT funds may cover some or all of the registered apprenticeship training.
