Exciting news! Today, we launched the Enhanced Combination Construction 🚧 Course in partnership with the McLeod Lake Indian Band, Duzcho & TC Energy!

Our first day covered essential topics such as orientation, enrollment, safety protocols, and selecting the right machinery for the program.

This initiative is made possible by the CWRG Community Workforce Response Grant and collaborations with TC Energy and Duzcho.

Over the next six weeks, participants will gain a total of 180 hours of hands-on training and 40 hours dedicated to compliance (safety certifications).

They’ll have the opportunity to work with a variety of equipment, including excavators, wheel loaders, graders, dozers, and rock trucks for certification.

A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to making this program a reality!

🎉 Congratulations to Brothers, Scotty and Harry on completing the Enhanced Combination Construction Program at O’Brien Training! 🎉

🚧 🚧🚧🚧🚧

After six weeks of hands-on training, they’ve earned their certification. They chose to get certified on three machines from an impressive lineup: excavator, wheel loader, and rock truck. It was a pleasure having them in the program, where they collaborated and built great teamwork skills and worked as individuals.

Now, both are working with O’Brien Recruitment to secure employment, and they’re excited about the possibility of finding work near their homes in Tahltan Nation.

We’re proud of your achievements and can’t wait to see where this journey takes you!

🌟 A special thank you to TRICORP for supporting their goals & tuition. As well as Tahltan Central Government for your support!
This could not have been achieved without you 🌟
