The Bay Area Council is proud to be a founding member of The Northern California Apprentice Network (NCAN). Our region is the most dynamic, innovative, and economically productive place perhaps in the world. The competition for skills and talent across a wide array of industry sectors is intense, and in order to maintain our global status, it is vital that we create multiple pathways for everyone in our community to maximize their skills and talents and that nobody is left behind. Apprenticeships do just that.
