ABOUT THE JOB:
The Google Project Management Apprenticeship is a Department of Labor Registered
Apprenticeship Program and a structured learning and development opportunity.
During the 18 month program, apprentices will participate in on-the-job
training, related technical instruction, and career development workshops to
develop professional and durable skills. Upon completion, apprentices receive a
nationally-recognized credential, certified by the U.S. Department of Labor.
As a Project Management Apprentice at Google, you will develop the skills you
need to pursue an entry-level career in project management.
Working alongside a team of Program or Project Managers at Google, you will gain
exposure to project management tools and concepts. You will learn to plan,
organize, and deliver projects efficiently by collaborating cross-functionally
to drive execution, monitor progress, proactively address roadblocks, leveraging
AI where applicable. Additionally, you’ll work towards building vital
communication skills and developing relevant domain knowledge.
Apprentices are paid hourly for their time split between on-the-job training and
related technical instruction, and are required to dedicate 40 hours each week
to the program. Apprenticeships begin with an immersive virtual onboarding
experience to build a foundational understanding of the profession. Apprentices
will then join a Google team to train on-the-job, while continuing to engage in
track-specific learnings and career workshops throughout the program. As part of
the program, apprentices receive holistic career readiness support, and towards
the end of the program will have the time and space to prepare for their next
endeavor.
