6. My application has been admitted; does that mean I have been selected?
No, this does not mean you have been accepted into the Cisco program. Your admission means you qualify to enroll in a Registered Apprenticeship Program. Now that you have been admitted, your application will be evaluated to move to the next stage in the process, which the apprenticeship program team assesses to be considered for pre-screening.
7. I have not created my OneTen Profile. Do I still need to do this?
Yes, a OneTen profile is needed - you can click [HERE] to create your profile
8. Are benefits offered during the apprenticeship?
Yes, full benefits are offered during the program (Healthcare, Dental, PTO, Holidays, etc).
9. How can I follow up on my application?
You can contact our admissions team to follow up on your application. The admissions team can be reached at info-admissions@openclassrooms.com.
10. If I already have a bachelor's degree, am I eligible for this opportunity?
We truly appreciate your interest in the program. Unfortunately, any four-year degree falls outside the scope of eligibility, so applicants with a bachelor's degree would not meet the requirements for consideration. We understand this may be disappointing, but we welcome you to submit your application to OpenClassrooms for consideration for other upcoming apprenticeship opportunities.
11. Where can I contact someone if I have additional questions?
Please get in touch with OpenClassrooms at info-admissions@openclassrooms.com.
