History

On July 6, 1994, The U.S. Department of Laborers' Bureau of Apprenticeship Training (BAT) officially recognized the Construction Laborers' occupation as an apprenticable trade. The Board of Trustees of the West Virginia Laborers' Training Trust Fund realized this official recognition was a long waited opportunity to develop a structured training program that would consistently provide union contractors with productive multi-skilled construction Laborers. The board immediately formed a multi-skilled construction Laborers. The board immediately formed a Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee (JATC) which developed a comprehensive set of program standards that was approved by the BAT on January 18, 1995, and so began the West Virginia Construction Craft Laborers' Apprenticeship Program.
