Strategy:

• Start with small-scale pilot programs to demonstrate success and build support
• Use data from pilots to make the case for broader implementation

Examples:

• Case Study: The County of San Diego implemented a small-scale IT apprenticeship program in its Health and Human Services Agency before expanding to other departments.
• Tactic: Launch a pilot program in a department with high turnover or hard-to-fill positions. Use success metrics from this pilot to advocate for expanded apprenticeship opportunities across the organization.
