The ICATT Apprenticeship Program helps high-tech manufacturers and companies with complex technologies or logistics tackle the skills gap by providing a workforce development strategy – a sustainable solution that provides a pipeline of talent over time. ICATT Apprentices are recruited, qualified, and guaranteed to learn the skills that companies need and want.
“As an employer I didn’t know where to get started, and ICATT just brought it all together .”

“Workforce Development is evolving into finding resources that are currently not in the workforce instead of fiercely competing for those that are. This means starting in the high schools and developing students into the next generation workforce. The apprenticeship program is beneficial to both the student and the company. Graduating students obtain a near-debt-free degree and the company obtains a ‘career-ready’ employee.”
Tony Velotta | Organizational Development Leader | Scot Forge
“The apprenticeship pathway is an excellent choice for young adults wishing to pursue a career in manufacturing. Our company, in partnership with ICATT, can give students a clear career direction, debt-free education, living wage, and tenure within an organization that values them as a trainee, employee, and as a person.”
Lisa Browning | Human Resources Manager | Richard Wolf Medical Instruments Corporation
“WITTENSTEIN has always trained their own people, typically through structured programs like the ICATT Apprenticeship Program. When you do that, you create an excellent skilled workforce. If you train your own employees based on a standard curriculum, you’ll have people with excellent skills who know your company. And when they’re done with their training, they can start right away.”
