Davis-Bacon certificates prove that each apprentice is officially registered and paid according to Department of Labor (DOL) standards. Apprentix makes it easy to upload, track, and renew these certificates.
How to Find a Current Certificate (for Fractional Sponsor clients only)
If you joined Apprentix's registered apprenticeship program, Apprentix's compliance team will issue and renew Davis-Bacon certificates on your behalf and will place them in Apprentix for you. You do not need to take any action to issue or renew Davis-Bacon certificates if you are a Fractional Sponsor client.
You can find your Davis-Bacon certificates here:
In Apprentix, go to Compliance > Documents > Davis-Bacon tab
Certificates are listed in descending order by expiration date
Click the file link to download any certificate
