The Alberta Pipe Trades College is excited to partner with Edmonton Public Schools with a fully funded Introduction to the Pipe Trades program for high school students. The first class will be attending training at the APTC Jan 31 – April 14, 2023. Successful students will be receiving credit towards their high school diploma.
This is great news for us and the industries we represent to encourage youth to get into the trades!
Attention Members,
Your election committee has an update and information regarding the 2022 Ballots going out this week.
Our business development team along with Alanna Marklund from UA Canada, Jason Hooper-welding examiner, as well as our RAP graduate-19 year old Journeyman B pressure welder Josh Lefebvre (!!) representing UA Local 488 at the Skills in the Heartland event this week at the DOW Center in Fort Saskatchewan. This was a great opportunity to showcase and promote the skilled trades to over 500 students from surrounding schools! Students were given a chance to try out our state-of-the-art virtual welding simulators and find out more about what the UA can offer for rewarding careers in the trades!
Please see the below list of nominees for your upcoming officers’ election for the 2023-2025 term.
