Press release from the Fox Cities Chamber: October 12, 2021 Kaukauna, WI — UA 400 Pipe Trades and the Mechanical Contractors Association (MCA) hosted Apprentice Signing Day on September 24, 2021 to recognize 46 first-time apprentices as they begin their five-year apprenticeships in steamfitting, pipe fabrication, plumbing and HVAC service. The event included a brief program followed by contractors presenting certificates of achievement to the apprentices along with a USA-made Gerber pocketknife in an outdoor ceremony at the UA 400 Training Center in Kaukauna. "Today's event is important because it helps the new apprentices realize the significance of their careers," said Trevor Martin, UA 400 business manager. "Similar to celebrating a student athlete's accomplishments, we feel it's equally necessary to recognize the people who for the next 30-plus years will be building and maintaining the communities we live and work in. Every apprentice here today will play an impactful role in their communities. This day is also a great way to showcase the partnership between UA 400 and the MCA, and our commitment to creating strong family supporting jobs here in the New North."
