Skills Learned

For Employers

As the longest-running program of its kind, Nontraditional Employment for Women stands apart with expertise in training, ability to adapt to changing workforce requirements, and experience in providing technical assistance that has allowed us to initiate many valuable partnerships. We are committed to serving both women and employers and have extensive experience assisting employers and labor organizations to successfully develop their own strategies to increase the participation of women in the skilled trades workforce.

NEW offers a variety of programs designed to meet the needs of both labor and industry and to provide unions and employers with highly motivated and job-ready women. Unions recognize that our graduates have an exemplary record of completing their apprenticeships, and employers look to NEW for capable workers for a wide variety of skilled blue-collar jobs. Our longstanding relationships with local apprenticeship programs and employers provide a seamless network of training and job placement for our students.

NEW works with unions and employers to ensure our programs meet your requirements and to place graduates in jobs and apprenticeships that match their skills, your needs, and both of your goals.
