Employment and Apprenticeship Readiness Program

There is no better time to start your career! Apply today for the opportunity to earn nationally-portable industry-recognized credentials at no cost (if eligible).

In our five-week program, trainees will earn NCCER Core, OSHA 10, First Aid/CPR, and Aerial Platform certifications. Training will include a variety of NCCER Level I modules applicable to several craft trades such as construction math and drawing, introductions to hand and power tools, and rigging and material handling. Participants will also be mentored on employment readiness to include resume review, interview preparation and job search assistance.

Although training is not paid, participants will have the opportunity to interview with employer partners as part of the course and may be hired by those employers upon graduation.
