Analyze Apprenticeships to Better Understand Workforce Pipelines
We’ve added a new Apprenticeships report, giving you visibility into how workers enter the labor market outside of traditional degrees.
This feature helps you connect training pipelines with real-time employer demand—so you can better understand where talent is coming from and where gaps remain.
Why it matters
Not all talent pathways are visible through job postings alone. Apprenticeship data reveals how skills are being developed on the ground—and where those pipelines may or may not align with hiring needs.
By incorporating apprenticeship insights, you can:
Identify occupations that rely heavily on apprenticeship pathways
Spot regions where training pipelines may be underdeveloped
Evaluate how well workforce development aligns with employer demand
Support more informed funding and program decisions
What you can explore
With the Apprenticeships report, you can:
Analyze the number of incoming and active apprentices over time
Identify occupations with the highest apprenticeship activity
Compare apprenticeship participation across regions
Detect gaps between apprenticeship supply and job demand
Explore where new apprenticeship programs may be needed
Where available, demographic indicators also provide additional context to support diversity and equity analysis.
How to use it
Start by selecting a location—such as a state, MSA, or county—and run the report to view apprenticeship activity across occupations.
Within the report, you can:
Filter by timeframe, occupation, or location
Customize columns to focus on key metrics
Use visual toggles to identify trends and outliers quickly
Explore both tabular and geographic views of the data
Save or export results for ongoing analysis
Turning insight into action
Whether you’re shaping workforce strategy, guiding education investments, or evaluating training programs, this report helps you understand how talent pipelines are evolving—and where to focus next.
By aligning apprenticeship activity with labor demand, you can make more confident, data-driven decisions about the future of your workforce.
