local 265 and yes host apprentice for a day workshop

Sheet Metal Workers’ Local 265, in partnership with our YES Steering Committee, kicked off the inaugural hands-on workshop “Apprentice for a Day” this past February. More than 30 employees from a diverse group of member companies attended, along with guests from industry partner, Construction Industry Service Corporation (CISCO), a labor-management association, to experience a day of training to better understand how our union sheet metal workforce learns and operates.

Following a continental breakfast to energize our day, attendees were split into four groups. Each group then rotated throughout four 55-minute educational sessions on the following topics:
