"I would like to thank these companies for their very generous support of our new training curriculum," says Sasha Demyan, MBCEA Executive Director. "This program will keep the MBCEA and our members at the forefront of the industry, and these pledges will help make it possible."

The Metal Building Assembly Curriculum will serve as a complete metal building assembly training program and offered via the NCCER learning management system. The new curriculum will qualify as a formal apprenticeship program while educating workers in the many facets of metal building construction.

"Metal buildings have some unique characteristics that require special training for building assemblers," notes Keith Wentworth, MBI President. "By offering this complete curriculum, we hope our members will have the best-trained workforce while creating a culture of craft workers in the industry."
