Re:       Apprenticeship Program Interest

We are in the process of creating an Apprenticeship Program with the Building and Construction Trades Council of South Central Wisconsin.  Nothing had been formalized yet.  We are researching 14 trades, as listed below.  This, “earn while you learn”, type of Apprenticeship Program will take three to five years to accomplish.  It will take serious commitment and dedicated people to achieve this task.

The TERO Office is seeking high school seniors (18+) and Ho-Chunk members who would be interested and in what type of apprenticeship to begin with.  If you are interested and or have further questions please contact the office. A high school diploma/GED and Valid Driver’s license are required.
