It’s National Apprenticeship Week, and the Ohio Building Trades are hosting events at specialized Building Trades Apprenticeship Training Centers across the state & region.

The next generation of Building Trades professionals are training at over 80 JATC Training Centers operated by the skilled building and construction trade unions and their signatory contractors across Ohio.
