At state-of-the-art training centers, certified instructors teach continuously updated curriculums containing the latest industry and safety technology for the best training in the construction industry.\n\nA union-trained craftsman receives certified training, including safety and skills training, at no cost to the union member. Each of our affiliated JATCs provides safety training both on the job and through Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) construction outreach training programs.\n\nThe construction industry relies heavily on skilled craftsmanship, so apprenticeship and upgrade training programs give our union members the skills and knowledge they need to be fully productive trades workers. Union journeymen are kept current and up-to-date in the newest technologies, helping to ensure they work both productively and efficiently on the jobsite.\n\nStatistics show that union training programs significantly outperform their non-union counterparts in enrollment levels, graduation rates, caliber of overall curriculum and training facility quality.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=\"1\" custom_padding_last_edited=\"on|tablet\" _builder_version=\"4.27.4\" _module_preset=\"default\" background_color=\"gcid-f6841ab2-6556-4ee9-a345-ac304b36ae3f\" custom_margin=\"0px|0px|0px|0px|true|true\" custom_padding=\"0px|0px|0px|0px|true|true\" custom_padding_tablet=\"64px|30px|64px|30px|true|true\" custom_padding_phone=\"64px|30px|64px|30px|true|true\" locked=\"off\" global_colors_info=\"{%22gcid-f6841ab2-6556-4ee9-a345-ac304b36ae3f%22:%91%22background_color%22%93}\"][et_pb_row column_structure=\"1_2,1_2\" custom_padding_last_edited=\"on|phone\" module_class=\"flex items-center wrap\" _builder_version=\"4.27.4\" _module_preset=\"default\" background_enable_color=\"off\" width=\"100%\" max_width=\"1440px\" custom_margin=\"0px||0px||true|true\" custom_padding=\"64px|63px|64px|63px|true|true\" custom_padding_tablet=\"40px|20px|40px|20px|true|true\" custom_padding_phone=\"40px|20px|40px|20px|true|true\" locked=\"off\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_column type=\"1_2\" _builder_version=\"4.27.4\" _module_preset=\"default\" background_enable_color=\"off\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_image src=\"https:\/\/columbusconstruction.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Group-5.png\" title_text=\"Group 5\" force_fullwidth=\"on\" _builder_version=\"4.27.4\" _module_preset=\"default\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\"1_2\" _builder_version=\"4.27.4\" _module_preset=\"default\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.27.4\" _module_preset=\"default\" text_font=\"|--et_global_body_font_weight|||||||\" text_text_color=\"#FFFFFF\" text_font_size=\"20px\" header_2_text_color=\"#FFFFFF\" header_2_font_size=\"36px\" header_3_text_color=\"#FFFFFF\" header_3_font_size=\"20px\" custom_margin=\"||10px|||\" custom_padding=\"||0px|||\" hover_enabled=\"0\" text_font_size_tablet=\"16px\" text_font_size_phone=\"16px\" text_font_size_last_edited=\"on|tablet\" global_colors_info=\"{}\" sticky_enabled=\"0\"]<h2><span>Registered Apprenticeship Programs<\/span><\/h2>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.27.4\" _module_preset=\"default\" text_font=\"|--et_global_body_font_weight|||||||\" text_text_color=\"rgba(255,255,255,0.6)\" text_font_size=\"16px\" header_3_text_color=\"#FFFFFF\" header_3_font_size=\"20px\" custom_padding=\"||0px|||\" hover_enabled=\"0\" text_font_size_tablet=\"16px\" text_font_size_phone=\"16px\" text_font_size_last_edited=\"on|tablet\" global_colors_info=\"{}\" sticky_enabled=\"0\"]The foundation of quality training rests with our affiliated JATCs.\n\nThrough their Registered Apprenticeship Programs, apprentices receive a debt-free education as the apprentices earn a livable wage while learning new skills.\n\nThis means they receive a blend of hands-on training and classroom instruction, ensuring they develop the skills and knowledge needed to excel in their careers. Apprentices earn a livable wage as they learn on-the-job skills from journeymen, combined with classroom training to help them learn the mathematics skills and theories needed to perform their jobs. Plus, they also earn industry-leading safety certifications to help them stay safe on the jobsite. Some trades require apprentices to earn various certifications documenting that they have mastered the skills and techniques required to perform their jobs.\n\nDepending on the trade, an apprenticeship program could last anywhere from three to five years.\n\nDuring this time, apprentices not only receive livable wages but also receive full-family medical benefits and begin to invest in their retirement.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=\"1\" _builder_version=\"4.27.4\" _module_preset=\"default\" custom_margin=\"0px|0px|0px|0px|true|true\" custom_padding=\"0px|0px|0px|0px|true|true\" locked=\"off\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_row column_structure=\"1_2,1_2\" custom_padding_last_edited=\"on|tablet\" module_class=\"flex items-center wrap\" _builder_version=\"4.27.4\" _module_preset=\"default\" width=\"100%\" max_width=\"1440px\" custom_margin=\"0px||0px||true|false\" custom_padding=\"64px|63px|64px|63px|true|true\" custom_padding_tablet=\"40px|30px|40px|30px|true|true\" custom_padding_phone=\"40px|30px|40px|30px|true|true\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_column type=\"1_2\" _builder_version=\"4.27.4\" _module_preset=\"default\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.27.4\" _module_preset=\"default\" header_2_text_color=\"gcid-f6841ab2-6556-4ee9-a345-ac304b36ae3f\" header_2_font_size=\"36px\" custom_margin=\"||1px|||\" hover_enabled=\"0\" header_2_font_size_tablet=\"24px\" header_2_font_size_phone=\"24px\" header_2_font_size_last_edited=\"on|tablet\" global_colors_info=\"{%22gcid-f6841ab2-6556-4ee9-a345-ac304b36ae3f%22:%91%22header_2_text_color%22%93}\" sticky_enabled=\"0\"]<h2><span>Journeyman Upgrade Training<\/span><\/h2>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.27.4\" _module_preset=\"default\" text_text_color=\"gcid-fbe8b446-55bf-4446-b6ba-313267057713\" text_font_size=\"18px\" custom_padding=\"||4px|||\" hover_enabled=\"0\" text_font_size_tablet=\"16px\" text_font_size_phone=\"16px\" text_font_size_last_edited=\"on|tablet\" global_colors_info=\"{%22gcid-fbe8b446-55bf-4446-b6ba-313267057713%22:%91%22text_text_color%22%93}\" sticky_enabled=\"0\"]Topping out as a journeyman does not mean the end of training.\n\nJourneymen receive upgrade training to ensure their skillsets remain the best in the business.\n\nWhile the requirements are different for each trade, it is common for journeymen to take training to upgrade their skills, improve their efficiency, learn how to use the latest technology or take new courses to advance their careers.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\"1_2\" _builder_version=\"4.27.4\" _module_preset=\"default\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_image src=\"https:\/\/columbusconstruction.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/cf15d2b9e75b8f3f2abdcc02ca1e95ea997babc2.png\" title_text=\"cf15d2b9e75b8f3f2abdcc02ca1e95ea997babc2\" _builder_version=\"4.27.4\" _module_preset=\"default\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]","_et_gb_content_width":"","inline_featured_image":false},"class_list":["post-2106","construction-issue","type-construction-issue","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Quality Construction Standards | Columbus Building Trades<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Discover why quality construction matters.
