In addition to the program standards required by WAC 296-05-015, program sponsors seeking new program registration and approval by the WSATC must submit the following:

(1) The proposed affirmative action plan;

(2) The proposed selection procedures; and

(3) Any other information about the sponsor's equal employment opportunity plan required by the WSATC.

The affirmative action plan and additional information is considered in conjunction with the program standards in the WSATC's decision whether to approve or disapprove an apprenticeship program. If the WSATC disapproves the apprenticeship program, it shall direct the department to inform the sponsor in writing the reason for disapproval.
