Apprenticeship

On
February 3, 1997, the United States Department of Labor,
Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, awarded the Illinois
Laborers' and Contractors' Training Trust Fund a Certificate
of Registration for Apprenticeship Training for the trade
of Construction Craft Laborer. The Training Program soon
began implementing its first apprenticeship program, administered
by the Joint Apprenticeship
and Training Committee |
| (JATC).
The JATC is composed of twelve members, six appointed by
the union and six by the employers. |
Our
instructors are dedicated to giving quality training in
everything from Asbestos Abatement, General Construction,
and Hazardous Waste Removal to Welding. We train more than
5,500 Union Laborers a year and offer an apprenticeship
program to qualified men and women who are interested in
a career as a construction craft laborer with all the advantages
of the Laborers' Union...good wages, great health and welfare
benefits and lots of advancement opportunities. |
