Overall, i think it's a great book for someone who's looking to get a introductory look into apprenticeship programs and how they can be started.It gives a great blueprint to follow and explains things in a way that is simple to understand.I'm still working my way through the entire book as it is a lot of information to fully digest in 220 pages but i think that makes it worth it as this point. Most books of its kind could well be 500+ pages but he manages to keep it under half of that while providing applicable content.I plan on using this as a side guide as I continue planning my own apprenticeship business in my industry.

As someone deeply involved in building modern apprenticeships, I can say with full confidence that this book—and its author—provides a seamless and straightforward approach to developing a successful apprenticeship program. With the rising cost of college and fewer students viewing it as a financially viable option, apprenticeships are gaining traction across the workforce landscape. However, the process of establishing these programs is often left to government agencies, which, as discussed in this book, frequently struggle with the complexities of apprenticeship development due to excessive bureaucracy and red tape. If you're looking to build a workforce pipeline tailored to your organization's specific needs while attracting top talent, a modern apprenticeship may be the solution—and this book serves as the ultimate guide. For those seeking to streamline the process and avoid the delays and frustrations that can come with working through State Apprenticeship Agencies, this book is an invaluable resource and one that I put my full recommendation behind.

I'm always struck by how brilliantly Andy illustrates the power of structured mentorship in business growth.We always see companies following traditional hiring paths (I've been in MANY) where there doesn't seem to be an end-goal in the work. The work seems like it's going to stay stagnant until one of us makes a decision, and it's rarely ever centered around education and ongoing training unless it directly relates to the skills at that specific company and benefits the employer first. That NEEDS to stop, and this book highlights exactly how.This book reflects EXACTLY the environment I want to foster in my own business - but I have rarely experienced in other full-time jobs. A win-win that builds loyalty while also developing exactly the skills the apprentice (and the employer!) needs to thrive inside and outside of the org. And honestly? I think this is the future of running a business. HIGHLY recommend reading this book if want to be ahead of your time running your biz. Definitely ideas and concepts I'm going to implement on my own moving forward.

I found the author's personal insights drawn from experience helpful as well. They added context to the topics.The book is timely as well, as the U.S. has fallen behind other countries in using apprenticeships build their future workforces. This is especially true in the manufacturing sector.If you’re looking for a clear, practical guide, this book delivers exactly that.

Andy Seth does a great job of making apprenticeships easy to understand and even easier to implement. One big takeaway for me was how unregistered apprenticeships can give businesses way more flexibility than the government registered ones, which come with a lot of red tape. I also liked how he breaks down the idea that apprenticeships should directly drive business growth, not just be a feel-good initiative. Another useful part was his step-by-step approach to designing a training program that actually works without taking up too much time or money. He even put together a budget template to help businesses plan costs, which makes it so much easier to get started. If you’re thinking about setting up an apprenticeship program but don’t know where to start, this book lays it all out in a way that’s simple and practical.

I've known Andy and read his other works, and tracked his trajectory as a leader and founder.In our changing economy, apprenticeship is likely to have a strong resurgence. Our founding fathers did this to learn a profession, and taught others. Our education system is not going to cover everything, and we do this in the medical field and just call it something else.Andy offers a path to get through all of the regulation that has been conjured over generations. We need more people teaching us how to do the complex things to make the other complex things easier to achieve.

Apprenticeships are the talk of educators and workforce professionals around the country - a fantastic way to combine earning and learning. The challenge is that the system for creating apprenticeships can be Byzantine and time-consuming.

I have always been interested in starting an apprenticeship program for my business, but when I started looking into it, the process seemed really overwhelming and nearly impossible to achieve. There was too much red tape, way too many rules, and no clear framework to make it work. This book makes sense of all the chaos. It is direct, practical, and to the point, written by an expert in the field.Instead of being viewed as a hassle, the author shows how apprenticeships can help to expand a business and the section dealing with profitability completely transformed my understanding of apprenticeships. The practical, business-minded tips and approach here actually got me excited to start my program and the compliance end of things seems way more manageable after reading.I highly recommend checking out this book because it is incredibly helpful. If you have the slightest interest in starting an apprenticeship program, it would save hours of frustration and stress.

Andy Seth’s Apprenticeship Launch System is an insightful, no-nonsense guide to creating effective apprenticeship programs that drive business growth. Seth, a seasoned entrepreneur, distills complex bureaucratic red tape into a practical, step-by-step system that helps businesses implement apprenticeships with minimal friction.One of the book’s greatest strengths is its emphasis on aligning apprenticeships with profitability. Seth debunks the notion that these programs are just about compliance or workforce development—he shows how they can be a strategic tool for sustainable growth. His approach is pragmatic, blending real-world experience with actionable frameworks. He addresses common pitfalls, such as excessive costs and inefficient program structures, while offering proven solutions to make apprenticeships successful.Beyond technical guidance, the book also embodies Seth’s mission-driven philosophy—helping businesses thrive while empowering individuals with valuable skills. His personal journey, from an apprentice himself to a successful entrepreneur, adds authenticity and inspiration to the book.For any business leader considering apprenticeships, Apprenticeship Launch System is an indispensable resource. It’s both a playbook and a mindset shift, proving that apprenticeships are not just an obligation but an opportunity to build a stronger, more resilient workforce.

If you're considering or already have an apprenticeship program and looking for a resource, look no further. This book covers everything you need to know about launching or improving your program. I found the author's personal insights drawn from experience helpful as well. They added context to the topics.The book is timely as well, as the U.S. has fallen behind other countries in using apprenticeships build their future workforces. This is especially true in the manufacturing sector.If you’re looking for a clear, practical guide, this book delivers exactly that.

I'm always struck by how brilliantly Andy illustrates the power of structured mentorship in business growth.We always see companies following traditional hiring paths (I've been in MANY) where there doesn't seem to be an end-goal in the work. The work seems like it's going to stay stagnant until one of us makes a decision, and it's rarely ever centered around education and ongoing training unless it directly relates to the skills at that specific company and benefits the employer first. That NEEDS to stop, and this book highlights exactly how.This book reflects EXACTLY the environment I want to foster in my own business - but I have rarely experienced in other full-time jobs. A win-win that builds loyalty while also developing exactly the skills the apprentice (and the employer!) needs to thrive inside and outside of the org. And honestly? I think this is the future of running a business. HIGHLY recommend reading this book if want to be ahead of your time running your biz. Definitely ideas and concepts I'm going to implement on my own moving forward.

If there’s one thing I know about leadership, it’s that true impact comes from creating opportunities—not just for ourselves, but for others. Andy Seth’s Apprenticeship Launch System is a masterclass in how to do exactly that while driving business growth at the same time.What I appreciate most about this book is that it’s not just theory—it’s tested, it’s tactical, and it’s written by someone who’s actually built what he’s teaching. Too often, business owners are told that launching an apprenticeship program is a slow, expensive, and bureaucratic headache. Andy dismantles that myth page by page, giving leaders a blueprint to turn apprenticeships into a scalable, revenue-generating asset. His 30-Day Launch Blueprint alone is worth the price of admission, and the Apprenticeship Profit Model takes things to another level.Beyond the frameworks, what sets this book apart is its clarity and practicality. Andy doesn’t waste words—he gives you the tools, strategies, and real-world examples that you can apply immediately. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a business leader, or someone looking to expand opportunities for underrepresented talent, this book is a must-read.If you’re tired of hearing excuses about why apprenticeships can’t be profitable and are ready to learn how to make them work for your business, then grab this book, use the playbooks, and see the results for yourself. It’s not just about building talent—it’s about building the future.

As someone deeply involved in building modern apprenticeships, I can say with full confidence that this book—and its author—provides a seamless and straightforward approach to developing a successful apprenticeship program. With the rising cost of college and fewer students viewing it as a financially viable option, apprenticeships are gaining traction across the workforce landscape. However, the process of establishing these programs is often left to government agencies, which, as discussed in this book, frequently struggle with the complexities of apprenticeship development due to excessive bureaucracy and red tape. If you're looking to build a workforce pipeline tailored to your organization's specific needs while attracting top talent, a modern apprenticeship may be the solution—and this book serves as the ultimate guide. For those seeking to streamline the process and avoid the delays and frustrations that can come with working through State Apprenticeship Agencies, this book is an invaluable resource and one that I put my full recommendation behind.
