Apprenticeship - What is it?
The Sheet
Metal Workers Local Union 54 Apprenticeship & Training
Program is a Joint Labor-Management apprenticeship program
that offers related classroom instruction and on-the-job
training. This means you “earn while you learn”. Our
industry is in need of young men and women with the aptitude
to listen and learn to become a skilled sheet metal worker.
Our program selects apprentices based on qualifications
without regard to sex, race or ethnicity, creed or nation of
origin.
Our training facility has gone through a stringent audit and
review by the International Training Institute. Having
complied to accreditation standards, in thirteen (13)
categories we were awarded with a gold level of
accreditation.
We are also an American Welding Society Accredited Test
Facility. This allows us to administer welding performance
tests and to provide Certifications to the welder who has
met all of the requirements for a specific certification.
Our program has been registered with the State of Texas,
Department of Labor/Office of Apprenticeship since 1961. We
also have a working relationship with Houston Community
College system for many years.
