We want to extend a huge thank you to Panzica Construction for generously hosting our daytime cohort at the brand-new Construction Employers Association (CEA) HQ offices! Our participants had the unique opportunity to visit the job site at the “bare bones” stage, witnessing firsthand the incredible work of multiple trades in action. It was an invaluable experience that allowed everyone to learn and see the construction process up close! Thank you, Panzica, for opening your doors and providing this incredible learning experience for our participants. Your support and partnership are truly appreciated! #ClevelandBuilds #UnionConstruction #LearningExperience #Grateful #PanzicaConstruction #ThankYou #CEA

"We need more folks that can be #carpenters, #electricians, #plumbers, lay brick and concrete, you name it." said Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb "That’s why that $ 10-million investment we made in our #workforcedevelopment training is so important, especially for young people across the city.” “Anytime we’re creating policies like this we’re able to build a pipeline of work that’s going to be sustainable to bring more workers into the trades," said Dave Wondolowski, Executive Secretary of the Cleveland Building and Construction Trades Council. "We need people everywhere, and the volume of work we’re faced with in Northeast Ohio is unprecedented.” https://lnkd.in/gPBN-WFY
