Getting more women into construction, that’s the goal of new pre-apprenticeship program in our area.
The UW School for Workers and Workforce Development Board of South Central Wisconsin (WDBSCW) is introducing Madison Women In Trades, a series to recruit more women into careers like electricians, carpenters and heavy equipment operators. Applications are being accepted now and the program is free for up to 20 women. It is sponsored by grant money from the state to the University of Wisconsin system.
