SUMMARY:Blue Collar 101: Building trades & the path through apprenticeship
DESCRIPTION:What does it actually take to become a carpenter in the 21st century? What range of skills and specialties does the trade encompass\, and how does someone learn them? For the inaugural session of Blue Collar 101\, we’re bringing together voices from across the carpentry and building trades to answer those questions directly. Joining us will be members of Local 339 of the North Atlantic States Regional Council of Carpenters alongside a representative from the Massachusetts Division of Apprentice Standards (Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development). \nThis is a panel conversation for the general public and those interested in pathways to the trades and industrial work. Expect honest\, ground-level discussion about what the work looks like day to day\, how skills are acquired\, what the apprenticeship pipeline actually offers\, and what the public often gets wrong about the trades. \nThis will be the first of a series of events\, each spotlighting a different trade or type of industrial work\, including those that keep our electrical grid powered\, water flowing\, transit systems running on time\, and our modern world functioning around us. \nFree and open to the public but registration is recommended. Doors open at 6:30. \n
