The United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners Local 2486 turned the sod on a new $1.5 million training centre in Sudbury.
The 8,400-square-foot facility located in Azilda, a suburb of the city, will train both experienced workers and apprentices in building trades such as carpentry, drywall and resilient flooring.
"I am thrilled about the fact that this facility will be the first of its kind in Northern Ontario," said union senior rep Tom Cardinal, "and will offer continuing education opportunities on new products and techniques as well as practical experience for new construction workers."
