Trained, Qualified Talent Prepares to Enter the Industry
|
EAPs first
Electrical Skills Training Program
kicked off October 7 with 17 students (ages 18-40) interested in entering the electrical and/or HVAC industries! To earn a seat in this program, each student passed exams in reading and math and completed a two-week "Bridge Program" preparing candidates for success in the workplace.
Students are learning in both a classroom instructional environment and gaining hands-on experience in the stick room. Graduates will walk away with knowledge and experience in the following areas: safety (including OSHA 10 certification), blueprints and circuitry, raceway systems, installation of specialty devices, NEC requirements, cable installations, and more.
They can fill vital positions within manufacturing, distribution or contracting. Let’s give them a good start!
Candidates are ready to join the industry now. If you are interested in adding one of these trained candidates to your team, contact Bob Fiori at (610) 476-0702 or
bob@eap.org.
