Which term is used to refer to the local training groups created through the NJATC program?

• A. JATCs
• B. JATCEs
• C. JETACs
• D. JATCFinders

Answer: (A)

Local training groups created through the NJATC program are Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committees. These joint bodies bring together employers and unions in a local area to develop and maintain apprenticeship standards, sponsor and supervise training, coordinate curricula, select instructors, and monitor apprentices’ progress. The acronym reflects the collaborative, locally administered structure, and the plural form JATCs is the standard term used. Other made-up names don’t reflect the official organization used by NJATC for these local groups.
