TransRe Apprenticeship Programs

Get paid to earn your BMCC Business Degree

Work with a fast-growing company, take classes, jump start your career, and get paid for doing it. Students in a BMCC apprenticeship program get the best of both worlds: the opportunity to study with BMCC’s highly qualified faculty as well as on-the-job training. Unlike a traditional internship that only lasts a few months over a summer or single semester, apprenticeship programs at BMCC last the full two years of an associate degree program and combine targeted coursework with real-world work. Upon degree completion, students will be offered full-time employment at the company.

  • Take business classes at BMCC 2-3 days per week.
  • Work full-time with a company on remaining days of the week.
  • Earn a salary and have your tuition, fees, and books paid for by your employer.
