Reach University's Apprenticeship 2.0 featured Taylor White on an episode that highlighted the "crucial" importance of youth apprenticeships. Taylor spoke about how these programs help young people break into industries where their identities may not be well represented, as well as open doors to opportunities and support career growth.
