Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 18, September 24, 2024

A. General policy: In order to carry out the provisions of the New Mexico State Apprenticeship Act with regard to safeguarding the welfare of the apprentice, the program provisions under which the apprentice is to be employed should be reviewed for their consistency with current apprenticeship fundamentals and recognized apprenticeship policies and practices of industry.

B. Every registered apprenticeship program shall have at least one registered apprentice, except for the following specified periods of time, which may not exceed one year:

(1) between the date when a program is registered and the date of registration for its first apprentice(s); or

(2) between the date that a program graduates an apprentice and the date of registration for the next apprentice(s) in the program.

C. The department shall evaluate performance of registered apprenticeship programs. The tools and factors to be used shall include, but are not limited to: quality assurance assessments, equal employment opportunity (EEO) compliance reviews, and completion rates. Any additional tools and factors used by the department in evaluating program performance must adhere to the goals and policies of the department.

D. In order to evaluate completion rates, the department shall review a program's completion rates in comparison to the national average for completion rates. Based on the review, the department shall provide technical assistance to programs with completion rates lower than the national average. Cancellation of apprenticeship agreements during the probationary period will not have an adverse impact on a sponsor's completion rate.
