Restaurant Manager Apprenticeship
at Louisiana Restaurant Association
New Orleans Catalog
About
Most of our apprentices work at restaurants in the New Orleans area, through our employer partnerships. Through the Restaurant Youth Registered Apprenticeship (RYRA), there are established pre-apprenticeship programs, such as ProStart and Restaurant Ready, to aid employers in identifying an apprentice, if needed. Funding is available to support the cost of apprentices attaining industry-based credentials like ServSafe®. Through established relationships, RYRA staff can provide a link to Louisiana’s technical and community college programs, and employers will receive support from the NRAEF with a training curriculum.
Beyond that, the apprenticeship can be coupled with support services and local workforce development agencies for potential wage reimbursement (subject to local eligibility requirements).
