Electrician's
Job Fair
"...There are other types of smaller projects like
restaurants, small office buildings, and retail outlets, that
have not traditionally been targeted by union contractors. In
an effort to become more competitive, IBEW Local 82 and the
National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) Western
Ohio Chapter recently held an Electrician’s Job Fair to
recruit new workers. The Job Fair was held at the Holiday Inn
Dayton Mall on April 3. Sponsored by the Western Ohio Chapter
NECA and IBEW Local 82, ten area contractors attended in order
to interview potential recruits: ESI Electrical Contractors;
Chapel Electric; Chapel-Romanoff Technologies (CRT); Kastle
Electric; Freedom Electrical Contractors; Studebaker Electric;
Reliable Electrical Mechanical; K & W Contracting
(Springfield); Dynamic Mechanical Systems (Cincinnati), and
DeBra-Kuempel (Cincinnati)."

Systems
The technology of communications
systems evolves every year. With the Internet, email, LANs/WANs and
wireless satellite technology, we can be in touch with anyone in the
world in a matter of seconds. Coupled with the
high demand for security systems in our country, it made sense for the
electrical industry to establish an apprenticeship training program to
produce the technicians required to meet these needs. Four years ago,
the Electrical Training Center in Dayton (Joint Apprenticeship
Training Committee, JATC) did just that.
In May, 2007 the first class of five
graduated. At present, there are eleven in the first year class, six
in the second year class, and two in the third year class, which will
graduate this May.
