June 6th marked a first for the Training Center. We rolled out our first successful one-week Tile Finisher pre-job class. The new format gets candidates acclimated with the bare basics of becoming a Tile Finisher: moving material, using a variety of tools for cutting tile, mixing different types of grouts, and the process of applying grout and washing tile. 

We've also begun our final six-week Brick Pre-Apprenticeship of the year. Our ten pre-apprentices began the process of getting familiar with moving/stacking block, spreading mud, and laying to the line.
