to grow, thus requiring a labor force skilled in the various construction trades such as
carpentry, electrical, HVAC, plumbing, and more. Upon successful completion of this
pre-apprenticeship program, students will earn the Multi-Craft Core Curriculum (MC3) certificate from the North America's Building Trades Unions and will be ready to take the test to enter a union apprenticeship.
