Today at 494 we officially announced our partnership with the Greater Essex Co. District School Board. We were fortunate enough to have with us local Members of Parliament, representatives from the schoolboard, and our trusted union contractors. Thank you all who were able to make it out and show your support. @gecdsb @gecdsb__studentsuccess

This is something that we here at Local 494 are beyond happy to talk about. We have partnered with the GECDSB Greater Essex Co. District School Board and have created an Enhanced Construction Program. With this partnership, we have started a High School program out of our union hall, allowing students to come to our training centre and attend school where they receive full High School credits. They are then placed with our contractors in hopes that they will get an apprenticeship right out of High School. This is allowing us to help the community as we are preparing the next generation of tradespeople. These students also receive their own tools helping better prepare them for their careers. Big thank you to HD Supply and Milwaukee Tool for helping us prepare these students.
