| When
you are accepted into an Apprenticeship with the Carpenters Union, you
will be at our Training Center basically one day a week during the term
of your Apprenticeship. While there, you're going to learn one of the branches
of the Carpenters Trade.
You will find your Instructors are some of the best and most dedicated
teachers you've ever had. You'll also get to know your fellow-Apprentices.
You will share Course Work with them, and you will begin friendships that
will last the rest of your life.
Even after you finish your Apprenticeship, you will be able to attend our
Training Center at night for Journeyperson Courses, which will help you
to advance in your new career. You will be surprised to find out how much
there is to learn, and how many courses we make available to you.
Of course, you will also learn the priceless knowlege of a Carpenter's
challenging and rewarding skill, which will last you a lifetime and help
you make a living at your chosen Trade.
You will
also find that our Journeyperson Carpenters are good teachers on the job-site...and
they are willing to help you learn their Trade. All you have to do is work
hard and give it your best when you are serving your Apprenticeship.
I wish you luck in becoming one of our Apprentices. After you have been
accepted, I look forward to talking to you at the School.
You will find that our Training Facility is a great place to build a foundation
for a rewarding career in a great field...as a Union Carpenter in the Construction
Industry.
Fraternally,
Edward Coryell
