The United States Department of Labour is to extend its apprenticeship program to the Pacific territories of Guam and the Northern Marianas.
It is part of a bid to increase the number of skilled workers ahead of the region's multi-billion dollar military build-up project.
The labour department's bureau of apprenticeship and training for Hawaii and Pacific says it will give locals in Guam and the Northern Marianas the skills to drive their tourism and military-based economies.
Immigration
From November 28, the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas Islands (CNMI) will hand control of its immigration system to the US.
This could result in a loss of some foreign labour.
Alfred Valles, director of the bureau, says there are calls to train locals for shipbuilding, tourism and casino and gaming industries in response.
Mr Valles says Guam will need at least 15,000 more skilled workers for the $US10 billion military build-up project that the United States and Japan are funding.
