WECA's outreach teams have been hard at work out in the communities we serve, attending events and encouraging your future workforce to consider apprenticeship and careers in construction.
A big thank you to members Helix Electric and Capitol Valley Electric for partnering with us at recent events. We have several more coming up--scroll down to see if there's an event in your region on which you'd like to join forces! |
These action shots are of John Knapp of Helix Electric, at the Port of Los Angeles - SRBX - CIEF Trades Day, telling young people about the rewards of a career in the electrical industry.
And here's WECA instructor Zach Wallace in action at the 2023 Diversity Job & Career Fair put on by the Greater Sacramento Urban League.
