QUESTION: What if I don’t qualify for the other funding programs, Can I pay cash?

At SW Design School, L3C; also known as SW Design School, LLC, we understand that everyone may not meet the qualifications to receive State, Federal, County, or Department of Defense funding. We have affordable payment plans to meet your financial obligation so that you can continue your education.

 

QUESTION: I thought Apprenticeship Training was FREE?

To clarify, the training method known as OJT (On-The-Job-Training) is provided within our National Apprenticeship program by the Employer. These are the job requirements needed to gain experience in the industry. However, the Related Instructions component (your certification) is delivered separately through SW Design School L3C (LLC). This Related Instructions training is an integral part of the Apprenticeship Program but is distinct from the OJT portion.

 

QUESTION: Who pays the Related Instruction Cost? The Apprentice?

For candidates that complete the Pre-Apprenticeship program, the EMPLOYER pays the Related Instruction cost. That cost could range from $8K – $25K per apprentice. SW Design School L3C (LLC) delivers the training but is NOT the employer.
