The Financial Services Apprenticeship Program is offered jointly by SEIU Local 1000, Employment Development Department (EDD), California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA), Department of Justice (DOJ), Department of Rehabilitation (DOR), California Government Operations Agency (GovOps) and American River College (ARC). This program is designed to provide state employees, who meet specific criteria, with financial education, skills, and experience.
