Workforce Development

ABC offers a variety of training programs to prepare individuals to enter or advance in the construction industry. Classes are taught by highly skilled instructors at our main facility in Broadview Heights and at satellite facilities in Findlay and Perrysburg. We can also customize many of our programs to meet your company's specific needs and offer them on-site in your facility.

Our APPRENTICESHIP TRAINING PROGRAM is registered through the Bureau of Apprenticeship Training (BAT) and the State of Ohio Apprenticeship Committee (SAC) and is certified by the National Center for Construction and Education Research (NCCER). We offer 3- and 4-year programs in various trades including carpentry, electrical, HVAC, and plumbing.

CONTINUING EDUCATION and SAFETY courses are designed to enhance the skills of anyone currently working in construction. Safety classes include OSHA; Asbestos, Lead and Mold Awareness; and Confined Space Entry and Rescue. Continuing Education courses cover a variety of topics including electrical and plumbing codes, fire alarm basics, motor controls, hanging cabinetry and much more.

Construction is one of the largest employers in America today and will continue to remain a stable industry, based on the U.S. Department of Labor's employment projections. We at ABC understand the importance of a well-trained workforce and are committed to providing quality training to meet the growing demands of the industry.

Feel free to contact the Workforce Development Staff if you have questions about our programs or suggestions of new courses for us to consider.
