GPO Expands Apprenticeship Program To Build Workforce
WASHINGTON —The U.S. Government Publishing Office (GPO) is restarting and
expanding its apprenticeship program to create the foundation for a new generation of
GPO teammates. This program is a critical element of securing GPO’s future as many of
the Agency’s current teammates are eligible to retire over the next five years. The
graduates will help maintain a first-rate workforce that is in line with the Agency’s future
growth and vision.
With the reinstatement of this program, the first class is comprised of proofreader
apprentices. The Agency is expanding future classes to other trades and production areas
this year. Qualifying candidates can apply on USAJOBS for the three-year program.
“For more than 100 years, GPO has developed the next generation of skilled craftspeople
for our team and to carry out the work we do for the Federal Government,” said GPO
Director Hugh Nathanial Halpern. “It’s our responsibility to ensure that we continue GPO’s
161 years of exceptional service. By passing on institutional knowledge and insight to new
hires, we can be better prepared to meet our future business needs.”
GPO’s apprenticeship program dates back to the 1880s when apprentices spent four years
learning their trade. In 2022, the Agency also restarted its Recent Graduate Program that
develops new teammates for positions at GPO. For both its Apprenticeship and Recent
Graduate Programs, GPO seeks to select teammates from diverse backgrounds and
experiences, an important asset for the Agency’s future.
GPO is the Federal Government’s resource for publishing trusted information for the Federal Government to the American people. The GPO is responsible for the production and distribution of information products and services for all three branches of the Federal Government, including U.S. passports for the Department of State as well as the official publications of Congress, the White House, and other Federal agencies in digital and print formats. GPO provides for permanent public access to Federal Government information at no charge through www.govinfo.gov and partnerships with approximately 1,100 libraries nationwide participating in the Federal Depository Library Initiative.
