June 2006: Construction Boot Camp for New Employees

To attract qualified workers and give them the basic skills needed to enter the construction industry, Sierra College CACT co-sponsored a two-week Construction Boot Camp in early June 2006. Graduates earned certifications in CPR/First- Aid Certification, OSHA Safety Overview, Forklift Safety Training and Flagger Training. Construction companies met with candidates at a job fair immediately after the graduation.
