In such a case, apprenticeship program standards shall expressly provide that the apprenticeship committee does not assume the obligation of an employer but agrees to use its best endeavors to procure employment and training for the apprentice with one or more employers who will accept full responsibility for all the terms and conditions of employment and training set forth in the agreement between the apprentice and the apprenticeship committee during the period of each employment.
