Journeymen Training
Training is the foundation upon which a skilled craft builds its reputation, and
without a solid foundation a building will crumble and fall. That is why the
OPCMIA maintains a host of training programs to support the plaster and concrete
industry. Each program is carefully designed to maximize productivity, quality,
safety, and opportunity. From our pre-apprenticeship partnership with the
federal government's Job Corps program to our international network of
registered apprenticeships to our journeymen upgrading and safety courses; each
aspect of the OPCMIA training agenda is designed to support the ever changing
needs of the industries we represent.
