Advantages of Apprenticeship
Apprenticeship is a system of training a new generation a trade or profession with on-the-job training and some accompanying classroom work. Apprentices who successfully complete this apprenticeship earn "journeyman" status, a professional certification level of competence.
Apprenticeship means On-the-Job Training. You will learn new skills by working on-the-job with experienced journey person. You will master the tools of the trade with hands-on practice. You will build new skills daily, and get paid as you learn.
Cement Masons and Plasterers are 4 year programs, in which an apprentice attends 4 weeks of training in the classroom at the Training Center.
