TITLE: National Apprenticeship and Training Standards for
Sign, Display, and Allied Workers Industry. Revised.

YEAR PUBLISHED: 1976
NOTE: 39 p.

ABSTRACT: These national standards are designed to provide a
uniform pattern for establishing and operating effective
apprenticeship programs for sign, display, and allied
workers. Included in the volume are the following:
provisions of the standards (definitions, qualifications for
apprenticeship, selection of apprentices, terms of
apprenticeship, related instruction, ratios of apprentices
to journeymen, apprentice agreements, probationary periods,
apprentice wages, veterans allowances, credit for previous
experience, basic hours of work for apprentices, supervision
of apprentices, consultants, accident prevention, adjusting
differences, work experience, and certificates of
completion); adapting national standards to local use (local
joint apprenticeship committees, coverage, duties of local
committees, responsibilities of apprentices, modification of
standards, filing with the registration agency, and
cooperating agencies); and federal laws and regulations
affecting the employment and training of apprentices (wage
determination regulations for federally financed and
assisted construction, joint training funds, equal
employment opportunity in apprenticeship and training,
safety and health training, and related technical
instruction). Appended to the guide are a model affirmative
action program, sample work process schedules, and
guidelines for apprenticeship recordkeeping. Concluding the
guide are lists of regional offices of the Bureau of
Apprenticeship and Training, a list of state and territorial
apprenticeship agencies, and sample registration and
apprenticeship completion certificates. (MN)
