(June 20, 2025) – Does your hospital have IT team members who could benefit from upskilling? Or are you looking to hire new IT staff who may need foundational training? Two registered apprenticeship programs, Customer Service Tech Support and IT Generalist, are now available to Kansas health care employers at no cost for the next three years.
Each program consists of 150 hours of flexible coursework to prepare workers for vital IT roles. Through Kansas' health care apprenticeship intermediary, TalentGro, hospitals can access these programs and related support services at no cost.
As a reminder, these opportunities are made possible through dedicated funding from the Kansas Apprenticeship Act, which supports hospitals in "apprenticing" up to 20 employees per EIN per year for advancement training and covers the costs of intermediary assistance.
