Apprentice Spotlight:
Barry Bieber has successfully completed more than 6,000 hours of on-the-job training and 400 hours of classroom study all while maintaining perfect attendance as a Year 4 Apprentice at Veka Inc. Congratulations!

"To me being in an apprenticeship program has been one of my biggest accomplishments. School has always been difficult for me. I have always been a hands-on learner. I am thankful to have this opportunity to be part of a program that is not only teaching me the skills that I can carry over to my work environment, but it has also helped me learn to increase my confidence in the classroom."
