Abstract	Next Steps at Vanderbilt, an inclusive postsecondary education program at Vanderbilt University, aims to equip students with skills and experiences to gain competitive employment. Next Steps has two primary goals: (1) Increase opportunities for students to gain targeted skills in career fields of interest; and (2) Create new career development initiatives that positively impact employment outcomes of graduates, such as type of employment, wages, and benefits. In the Fall of 2021, Next Steps developed an Early Childhood Educator registered apprenticeship program in partnership with the Vanderbilt Child and Family Center. This is the first Early Childhood Educator apprenticeship program in the state of Tennessee. Students enrolled through Next Steps can participate in this apprenticeship program to work toward a US Department of Labor industry-recognized credential in Early Childhood Education. This brief teaches about the key components of apprenticeships, the reasons why apprenticeships are a promising practice in inclusive postsecondary education (IPSE), and the steps to develop registered apprenticeship programs. information about the Early Childhood Education pilot apprenticeship program is shared as an example of the use of apprenticeships in inclusive postsecondary education programs. [This brief was written with contributions from Emily Barker, Charlene Russell, and Kathleen Seabolt.] (ERIC).
