Missoula College Adds New Apprenticeships

Students at Missoula College of the University of Montana soon will have two more places to apprentice.

Design firm Morrison-Maierle Systems joined the fleet of businesses connected to the college on Nov. 14, while staff members from Dr. Nanette Ault’s periodontics office will sign up new apprentices from 3 to 4 p.m. Friday, Nov. 16.

The businesses will offer positions in the high-demand information technology and accounting sectors, respectively. The new apprenticeships will benefit students and industry alike, according to Dylan Rogness, MC apprenticeship liaison.

"The larger our network grows, the more opportunities students have," he said. "We’re one of the biggest talent pools in Missoula that’s largely untapped. The more bridges we can build in community – that will be a tide that raises all ships."
