DESCRIPTION:Ambassador Suzi and Eric Levine\nThe United States has a long 
 history of apprenticeship going back to the start of our nation. However\,
  since the 1940s\, a University degree has become more of the prerequisite
  to success. Ambassador Suzi and Eric LeVine will share the history of app
 renticeship in the United States and how European models\, and especially 
 the Swiss model\, are inspiring an apprenticeship renaissance that enables
  more people in the United States to succeed.\n\nAs an example of the perm
 eability that Switzerland has built into their system and that we believe 
 is essential in the United States\, the Universities know how to receive t
 he credentials of apprentices and are even apprentice employers. For examp
 le\, we know one young man who did his IT apprenticeship and then\, inspir
 ed by his experience\, is now studying at EPFL for his computer science Ph
 D.
