Apprenticeship Information Center
1100 N. Eutaw Street, Room 204
Baltimore 21201 Telephone: 383-5532

The former Department of Employment Securi-
ty established an Apprenticeship Information
Center in the spring of 1964 under the direction
of the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Ap-
prenticeship and Training. In conjunction with
the opening, the Governor and the Mayor of
Baltimore City jointly appointed a Citizens Advi-
sory Committee. The Governor reactivated this
Committee in 1970 and reappointed its members.

The Apprenticeship Information Center Advi-
sory Committee reviews laws and official deci-
sions that effect the execution of the apprentice-
ship system. It also promotes opportunities for
the employment of youth as apprentices, acts as
consultant and adviser to all groups concerning
apprenticeship, and advises and assists in problem
areas where there is strong or determined resis-
tance to equal opportunity practices. The Com-
mittee encourages the establishment of formal ap-
prenticeship programs, and studies ways and
means of encouraging and accelerating appren-
ticeship job opportunities.

The Committee consists of representatives from
employer groups, labor minorities, the general
public, and State and local government. Officers
serve one-year terms and appoint the Director.
