Registered Apprenticeships provide service members and veterans a unique earn-and-learn pathway to develop and expand technical skills. The Maine Construction Academy is particularly proud to not only serve veterans & service members through our programs, but be led by one! Thomas S., our Workforce & Apprenticeship Manager, is a veteran himself - serving for 20 years in the US Army (SFC. THOMAS SUTHERLAND, USA, RETIRED INFANTRYMAN, 2002-2022)! So, what are the benefits for an active-duty service member and/or veteran in becoming an apprentice? ?? Get paid while learning a new skill that is outside one’s military occupation; ?? Work alongside a mentor in a structured environment; ?? Receive credit for prior education and military service; ?? Earn nationally recognized credentials; ?? And, eligible veterans can use their GI Bill benefits & receive a tax-free monthly housing stipend!
