“Undocumented immigrants can participate in the Registered Apprenticeship Program. They will need to have the ability to pay out of pocket for tuition/fees/books associated with their academic program. The rate of tuition and fees are more for foreign students (non-us citizens).”

Good morning **** **,
Thank you so much for reaching out to me regarding the Registered Apprenticeship Program offered at Coastal Pines Technical College. The apprenticeship program is an on-the-job training program that is offered to current students at Coastal Pines. You must be enrolled in an academic program at the college to participate.
There are two pathways to participation in the program:
Pathway 1 – Current Coastal Pines Student Placement
If you are not enrolled at the college, you would need to apply for admissions and be accepted to the college.
Pathway 2 – Apprenticeship Partner Employees Can Enroll in Classes
Undocumented immigrants can participate in the Registered Apprenticeship Program. They will need to have the ability to pay out of pocket for tuition/fees/books associated with their academic program. The rate of tuition and fees are more for foreign students (non-us citizens).
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Take Care,
Kimberly

On illegal aliens released into the U.S. since January, 2021 – testimony to the House Committee on the Judiciary, Jan 11, 2024. (“The Cost of Illegal Immigration to Taxpayers” – Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement Subcommittee of the House Judiciary Committee hearing entitled “The Impact of Illegal Immigration on Social Services”)
“The current surge of illegal immigration is unprecedented. Some 2.7 million inadmissible aliens have been released into the country by the administration since January 2021. There have also been 1.5 million “got-aways” — individuals observed entering illegally but not stopped. Visa overstays also seem to have hit a record in FY 2022.”
2.7 released + 1.5 million got away = 4.2 million. Please add the below.
Data on visa overstays from DHS:
“The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has quietly published an overdue overstay report showing that more than 850,000 foreign visitors overstayed their authorized stay in FY2022, which is probably a record high.”
Georgia: Here is a 2016 estimate on the number of illegal aliens living in Georgia from Pew Research – 400,000.
By now it is likely over 500,000.

Dear editor
Conservatives who are thrilled with the state legislature for passage of HB 1105, the Georgia Criminal Alien Track and Report Act should be aware of another bill passed in the just-ended session. SB 354 is legislation that begins a process of disassembling an entire system designed to make life difficult for illegal aliens in Georgia.
Because sorting out and rejecting illegal aliens in the process of issuing occupational licenses is a package deal, ending the licensing process also eliminates the check for illegal immigration status. SB 354 does exactly that for some low skilled workers in cosmetology and barbering industry. Sponsored by Sen. Larry Walker (R-Perry) and pushed by the usual “We want more workers!” suspects in the state Capitol, this business-first legislation will result in more illegal immigration into Georgia. Obedient Republican lawmakers passed SB 354 with only two of them voting against it. Neither of them represents Coastal Georgia. Not many Republican voters want Georgia to be a great place for illegals to “live, work and raise a family.” I can’t help but wonder what Laken Riley’s family thinks about this travesty.
Sadly, nobody should be surprised if Gov. Kemp proudly signs Walker’s dangerous bill into law while assuring us that it’s “good for business.” But it is well worth the effort to ask Kemp to veto this one. SB 354 should be a cause of great shame for Republican voters if they remain silent. Kemp’s Capitol office phone number is 404-656-1776
