What is On-The-Job-Training (OJT)
An On-The-Job Training program is a Federal Highway Administration requirement for all states. The objective of the NDOT pilot OJT program is to address the underrepresentation of minority, female, veteran, and economically disadvantaged individuals in the highway construction trades through the establishment of OJT objectives in these projects. The primary objective of the NDOT pilot OJT program is the training and upgrading of minorities, women, veteran, and disadvantaged individuals through the completion of craft apprenticeship programs on a project to achieve journey-level status on NDOT Federal-Aid contracts.
