Get ready for a deep dive into a high-demand career path, as we sit down with Jeff Broussard, Business Agent/Organizer, and Joseph Karcher, Assistant Coordinator for the Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee, to explore the Pipefitters Local 211 Registered Apprenticeship Program. We discuss the critical work pipefitters perform across Southeast Texas industries, the key skills needed for success, and how the region's industrial growth is shaping the demand for skilled workers. Our guests walk us through the apprenticeship requirements, the intensive training and classroom instruction provided, and how the wages and benefits stack up. We also explore how AI is affecting the pipefitting workforce. More information about the apprenticeship program can be found at: https://www.pipefitterslocal211.com/apprenticeship.aspx.
