Ideas From YouthBuild Peers: MC3 to Apprenticeship Pipeline
About
This video centers on better preparing young people for the future of work with more direct entry into the building trades. You can hear insights about how TradesFutures' Multi-Craft Core Curriculum (MC3) is working for the Georgia Building Trades Academy (GABTA) and related challenges, lessons learned, and early wins.
On the podcast, guests share how MC3 prepares participant trainees for their registered apprenticeship (RA), support offered during the follow-up year, and best practices for programs interested in pursuing the RA pathway. They also discuss the importance of having a voice at the workforce development table, which can help create and strengthen your building trades pathways and partnerships.
