If you qualify for G.I. Bill benefits, your wages as an apprentice can offset your apprentices wages through a housing stipend based on the geographic area of the training center you attend. As you advance in your apprenticeship and qualify for pay raises, the stipend reduces through this program. Essentially allowing the veteran apprentice to receive Journeyman scale throughout his/her apprenticeship.
