Our Partners

I enjoyed that this program helps minorities get a grasp of the industry and the knowledge to perform at a high level. This was hands down the best decision I made. I was trying to get into an apprenticeship prior to covid and it was a struggle. This program was such a blessing and has now put me on the right path to starting the career I want.
