The Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry (DLI) funds the design and development of new health-sector multi-employer registered apprenticeship programs in Minnesota.

It seeks programs offering opportunities in multiple occupations, with regional or statewide reach and participating employers of different sizes. Registering apprentices by June 30, 2027, is encouraged but not required.
