Apprenticeship Student

Enrollment Checklist

☐ Admission

Complete an application online. Be sure to select Apprenticeship as your program of study so we know you are interested in this training program. You will receive an acceptance letter within one week.

☐ Consultation

Complete the Apprenticeship information sheet and release form available through your employer. It is recommended you begin several weeks prior to the opening of the registration period to allow for processing time. Registration begins in March for summer, in April for fall and October for winter, and continues through the start of classes.

After these forms are submitted, the Director of Apprenticeship and Prior Learning will place you in the correct specialty program, send an Apprentice Letter of Authorization form to your sponsoring company, and guide you through the entire process. For more information about the Apprenticeship program, call 269.488.4787 or email agaston@kvcc.edu.

☐ Registration

Once all completed apprenticeship forms are received and courses have been identified, your registration will be processed by the Office of Apprenticeships and Prior Learning Assessments who will provide valuable guidance on course assignments and ensure that you’re on track with your apprenticeship training plan.

☐ Payment

Tuition bills are available online in MyValley. If an Apprentice Letter of Authorization form has been received, classes will be held while sponsoring companies are billed. If you have applied for financial aid or a third-party is paying, check your account to make sure your payment is in place and pay any remaining balance by the deadline. Pay for your classes online, on campus or by mail during deferred payment periods. Payment plan options are available.

☐ Purchase Books and Supplies

If your sponsoring company will be paying for books and/or supplies, a book voucher will be available at least one week prior to the start of the semester in the KVCC Bookstore.

☐ Student ID

You must be registered for classes and present a photo ID to obtain your Valley ID. Visit the Texas Township Campus Services Desk, Culinary Allied Health Building or Anna Whitten Hall to pick it up in person. Alternatively, request it via the MyValley portal to receive it by mail. The card is needed for services and required at Arcadia Commons Campus for parking validation and door access.
