I feel that the apprenticeship program is great for people not choosing to go to college. The program also comes with great hands-on experiences, which is the best kind of training. For me, the apprenticeship program helped me progress with the company and gain a lot of field knowledge that you do not get in college. When I completed the program, I became a mentor and was able to help grow and teach the Crossland employees in the apprenticeship program; such as doing onsite training, testing, and just being a mentor for them. I then became a superintendent and continued the mentor roll for about a year as a superintendent, training the people in the program when I had to chance. Lastly, I think the apprenticeship program is very beneficial to the company and anyone who has a chance to go through the program. It is a great stepping stone for building your career.
