COBT Hammer Heads Program

COBT Hammer Heads Program Participants are exposed to multiple construction trades over the course of the program.

The Hammer Heads Program is a skill and employment-based training program within the construction industry offering apprenticeship career opportunities to the youth of under-resourced neighbourhoods in our communities. The Hammer Heads Program is a 12 week skill and employment-based training program that links young men and women from under-resourced communities to apprenticeship career opportunit

ies in the construction industry. There is hands-on learning at various affiliate training centres located across the GTA in addition to job site visits. Participants are exposed to leadership and mentoring from seasoned construction workers, learn valuable skill sets which build self-confidence and promote positive self-awareness. Hammer Heads can link youth to twenty-eight different unions and the many major contractors connected to the Central Ontario Building Trades.
