The ____ agrees to make every effort to keep the apprentice employed.

The ____ agrees to make every effort to keep the apprentice employed.

• A. Ajatc
• B. Committee
• C. Ibew
• D. Neca

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is who commits to keeping an apprentice employed—the body that administers the apprenticeship program. In electrician apprenticeships, the Committee (the Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee) is the group that oversees placements and works to ensure apprentices stay employed. Saying the Committee agrees to make every effort to keep the apprentice employed reflects its role in coordinating with employers and the union to maintain continuous work for the apprentice. The other options are organizations or acronyms involved in the program, not the specific party that signs that particular commitment, so they don’t fit as naturally as the Committee.
