Objective
Empower facilitators to guide apprentices through their career journey by recognizing key milestones and providing meaningful awards to ensure long-term retention.
Facilitation Strategies:
• Host an annual "Milestone Graduation" luncheon during Construction Inclusion Week where senior leaders present personalized awards to apprentices reaching key training benchmarks.
• Create a peer-mentorship spotlight board on jobsites to publicize apprentice accomplishments and highlight the facilitators supporting their growth.
• Issue customized tool set vouchers or specialized safety gear signed by site leadership as tangible milestone rewards for retention and progress.
• Establish a quarterly "Apprentice & Facilitator Roundtables" program to give apprentices a voice in site operations while tracking career advancement goals.
