Three active programs sit on Washington's registry (the state's official program list), all drawn to one dollar scale so the heights compare honestly. The bottom of each ladder is pay on day one; the top is the journey rate. Check the address on a program's registration before you go: it's usually an office or a hall, not a job site. These figures are the registry's own.

Each card opens that program's page, and the page links the program's own listing on L&I ARTS; the listing carries the program's current contact. This site publishes no contacts.

02 THE LICENSE
