Accessible Pathways to Education: TRLA Apprenticeship Program
Woodcraft Rangers’ Together Rising Los Angeles (TRLA) Apprenticeship Program creates more accessible pathways to continuing higher education for frontline staff. Launched in 2024, TRLA is Southern California’s first registered apprenticeship for early childhood educators and expanded learning professionals—one of only three programs of its kind nationwide. It is also one of just two expanded learning apprenticeships in California, with Woodcraft Rangers as the only employer-led initiative in Southern California. The inaugural cohort includes 14 dedicated participants paving the way for a more inclusive, supported educator pipeline.
