What is the CTA Apprenticeship Program?

The CTA Apprenticeship Program is a second chance initiative offered in conjunction with the City of Chicago and social service agencies throughout the city. Working closely with the Department of Family and Support Services, hard-to-place individuals are given an opportunity to obtain full-time employment and training which may enable a start of a long-term, meaningful career.

How do you apply?

Currently, there are two avenues to become a part of the CTA Apprenticeship Program.
