FLORHAM PARK, NJ, November 14, 2023 — BASF's North American Apprenticeship Development Program has expanded for a second consecutive year in 2023, launching at eight additional regional manufacturing sites. The program, which offers apprentices a unique opportunity to gain on-the-job training and earn industry-recognized credentials while receiving a full-time wage, is now established at 28 BASF manufacturing sites across the United States. Among the new BASF sites welcoming apprentices in 2023 are Port Arthur, TX; Pasadena, TX; Malcom, IA; Southfield, MI; and Research Triangle Park, NC.
“BASF's apprenticeship program is an important pillar of our strategy to address the projected shortage of millions of skilled workers in the United States in the coming years,” said Marc Ehrhardt, President, BASF North America and Board Member of the National Association of Manufacturers.
