West Virginia Construction Craft Laborers

Labor Day should remind of of the sacrifices and hardships our predecessors faced to win the rights we enjoy today. We would encourage the membership to sign ip for RISE Training to learn about these benefits we enjoy as a result of the labor movement and to "Train Up" on the knowledge & skills that will shape the future of our trade.

It was a great honor to host LiUNA General President Brent Booker, LiUNA VP & Mid-Atlantic Regional Manager Phil Ameris, and LiUNA Construction Department Director & Assistant Regional Manager Brendan O’Sullivan for a site tour and discussions on how training is being used to create opportunities for the membership through pro-active partnerships and forward thinking initiatives.
Also during this visit our leadership was eager to engage with the 14 new apprentices on site and took the opportunity to eat lunch with these new members. It gave us great pride to watch our leadership interact with LiUNA’s newest members as these individuals take their first steps into careers within LiUNA.

Yesterday, WVALDC Organizer Shane Dillon and West Virginia Construction Craft Laborers Apprenticeship Coordinator Eric King paid a visit to Coalfield Development Corporation in Logan, WV, to speak with one of their adult education groups.

​Shane and Eric shared the incredible career opportunities available through LiUNA and our apprenticeship program. They highlighted the massive variety of construction sectors our members work in every day.

​Our program doesn't just offer a job, it sets you up for a lifelong career through top-tier training and the invaluable experience of working alongside skilled journeymen and journeywomen.

​Thank you to Coalfield Development for having us, and to the students for their time and great questions!
