New Apprentice Orientation. With the new 2 week curriculum incorporated for the new Apprentice class, we call it back to the basics. The apprentices will be certified on the Telehandler, JLG, forklift and scissor lift. We feel it is imperative for a new apprentice just starting out to be familiar and able to operate these machines their very first day. Also, they are learning how to identify and use hand tools, power tools, PPE, how to operate shop machines, measure, build duct, anything that they will be required to do, either in the shop or field, we will be teaching The basic information covered at orientation will be vital, not only for the safety aspect of the apprentices, but for everyone involved!
