| responsibility
in 1937 when our first off-site training program began and set the standards
for instruction and achievement.
Today, the program is governed
by the Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee, a group of union and
employer professionals who realize the need to create a steady source of
skilled sheet metal workers. The cooperation between the group stresses
that training will provide the skills the marketplace requires. It also
indicates that hard work will be rewarded with good employment.
We also participate in the
International Training Institute. This is a national organization that
includes every Sheet Metal Fund in the country. They provide us with a
wealth of training information and materials that comply with the highest
standards of the industry.
Please let us know if more
information is required about Local 19 or our programs. We welcome visitors
to our Training Center and are always willing to sit and talk with prospective
members and contractors.
Sincerely,
Joseph
