ARPEC extends Journeymen Continuing Education offerings
ARPEC has experienced record attendance at this spring's Journeymen Continuing Education classes, according to Training Director Phil Rodin. Many of the classes offered this spring were filled to full capacity and are now being offered again. The JATC reminds all Journeymen of the CBA's continuing education requirement of 7 hours per year, which must be reported by June 30th to receive the July 16 wage & benefit increase. For a complete list of classes, please contact the training center.
Apprenticeship Trustees prepare for long term training needs
As part of the JATC's continued efforts to plan for long-term funding needs of the training center, JATC trustees are inviting input from contractors and union members on future training needs, training and facility improvements. If you have suggestions, please email them to JATC co-chairmen Bill Clark (Airstron) or Michael Mueller (LU725 / Hill York).
