Technical school partnership helps grow membership in Tennessee

Local 1554 is growing their membership by developing partnerships with technical schools throughout Tennessee. 

On May 17, Local 1554 business agents William Condon and Jesse Beilig spoke with Lincoln Technical Institution graduates about career opportunities available in the millwright trade. Current students from the welding, diesel, and automotive programs were also in attendance with these graduates. 

By fostering these relationships, our business agents have been offered positions to sit on advisory committees at several institutions. This allows our millwright business agents the opportunity to give feedback on the needs of our industry, and tips on how to better prepare students for a career as a millwright.
