(1) between the date when the apprenticeship program is registered and the date of registration for its first apprentice; or

(2) between the date that the apprenticeship program graduates an apprentice and the date of registration for the next apprentice or apprentices in the program.

(b) Evaluation. The Vermont Registered Apprenticeship Program shall adopt tools and factors to evaluate the performance of apprenticeship programs, including the following:

(1) quality assurance assessments;

(2) Equal Employment Opportunity compliance reviews; and

(3) completion rates.

(A)(i) To evaluate completion rates, the Vermont Registered Apprenticeship Program shall review an apprenticeship program’s completion rates in comparison to the national average for completion rates.
