Apprenticeships
Did you know that a good quality of
life for you and your family is just a few steps away?
Launching a career as a union carpenter will place
skills in your hands that are in demand in this state’s
construction industry. And, you will be part of the
strongest and most loyal organization in the country.
And the pay and fringe benefits are pretty good, too.
The Ohio Carpenters’ Joint
Apprenticeship and Training Program offers one of the
top carpenter apprenticeship programs in the nation.
More than 1,500 apprentices are enrolled in our
four-year programs, offered at no cost to the
apprentice. A joint committee made up of union members
and signatory contractors oversee the apprenticeship
program.
According to a
recent
ABC News Report,
32 Percent of U.S. Employers Say It’s Hard to Fill Jobs,
and the most difficult jobs to fill in the U.S. were
those in the skilled trades — carpenters, plumbers and
electricians.
