Well-trained labor
is the backbone of construction...
The Southern
California District Council of Laborers Training School has been providing
that for more than 30 years. Previously in Anza, California, the Laborers
Training School recently relocated closer to the L.A.-Orange Counties
metropolitan area to improve the level of service to LIUNA signatory
employers.
Mobile Units Go to
Your Work Site
To compliment this new training center, the training school has added mobile units to take training on the road to where it's
needed -- the employer's yard or job site -- to help meet the challenges
facing the construction industry.
Hands-on Courses
Besides the traditional
construction skills training in asphalt paving, concrete placement,
scaffold building, pipe shoring and trenching, the Laborers' Training
School offers hands-on courses in:
- Asbestos and lead
abatement
- Electric
arc and pipe welding
- Non-traditional roles
Tailored Training
Programs to Meet Employer's Needs
The training school also has the capability to create or tailor training to the
employers' specific needs. For new members needing
instruction on basic construction skills and good work habits, the "Fundamentals of Construction" classes will meet their needs.
Apprenticeship Program
Provides on-the-job Training
Additionally, both the Department of Labor and the State of California have
recognized and approved the Laborers Apprenticeship Program for Southern
California's Indentured Apprentices for use on all Federal Davis-Bacon and
California prevailing wage projects. Within the required 3000 hours
of on-the-job training, the apprentice learns the general skills of the
laborer as well as specific skill areas in:
- Environmental
remediation
- Building Construction
- Heavy/Highway
Construction
In addition,
the Indentured Apprentice must attend 216 hours of supplemental/related
instruction in classroom and hands-on type format, during the minimum
18-month program.
