Holliston, MA – Wayne J. Griffin Electric, Inc. announced it once again celebrated the U.S. Department of Labor’s National Apprenticeship Week. Griffin Electric has participated each year since the inception of the federal initiative in 2015.
The company participated by recognizing the many students and instructors of its in-house Apprenticeship Training Program, who representatives say continue to have a profound impact on the company’s success. In appreciation of all the hard work these individuals put in every day, Griffin Electric gifted a Klein Tools 14-in-1 Precision Screwdriver/Nut Driver to each apprentice and teacher. During Saturday classes, the company also raffled off a series of prizes throughout the day and provided food trucks or a catered lunch to everyone in each of its locations in New England and the Southeast.
Griffin Electric’s fully accredited program is a debt-free alternative to traditional schooling and has helped prepare many apprentices in pursuit of their licensure to transition into electrician and telecom technician roles for over 30 years. Designated as an approved training site by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, the company’s program features a mix of classroom instruction, hands-on training, and on-the-job learning. The program is separated into four levels of instruction and is offered on-site at the company’s Holliston, Mass. headquarters, as well as at its regional offices in Pelham, Ala.; Doraville, Ga.; Charlotte, N.C.; and Raleigh-Durham, N.C.
