ABC Participates in First Congressional Apprenticeship Caucus Event

July 17, 2018

Greg Sizemore, ABC vice president of HSE and workforce development, participated in the first meeting of the U.S. House of Representatives Apprenticeship Caucus July 12 on Capitol Hill to share ABC’s views on workforce development. The bipartisan caucus was started by Representatives Brett Guthrie (R-Ky.) and Susan Davis (D-Calif.) with the goal of expanding apprenticeships and raising the prestige of the skilled trades. 

Along with industry experts, Sizemore praised caucus members for their attention to apprenticeships and offered recommendations on how to fill the skills gap and give all Americans the opportunity to build America. Sizemore emphasized the importance of recognizing apprenticeships as an equal to college education and described the lucrative and fulfilling careers that construction offers.
