On June 6th, we had the privilege of celebrating the East Central Illinois Building And Construction Trades Council & HIRE360 Central Illinois Pre-Apprenticeship Graduation - a milestone that marks the beginning of exciting careers in the trades for these dedicated individuals.
This program represents more than training—it’s an investment in our workforce, our communities, and the future of the construction industry. The graduates have demonstrated commitment, perseverance, and a strong work ethic, and we couldn’t be more proud of their accomplishments.
State Senator Paul Faraci and State Representative Brandun Schweizer joined in recognizing the achievements of these graduates and supporting workforce development in Central Illinois.
To all the graduates: your journey is just beginning. Keep building, keep learning, and keep striving for excellence—we’re excited to see all that you will accomplish.
💪 The future of the trades is strong—and it starts here.
