Training For The Future
No other organization serves the training needs of the piping
industry like the United Association. For over a century, the UA has
been training the most highly-qualified workers in the United States and
Canada.
Over the past several decades, the United Association's training
programs have produced a stable, skilled workforce responsible for
building and maintaining piping systems in the various industrial and
residential facilities that make up the North American landscape.
No one can match the commitment or investment. The UA spends over $100
million annually on training programs efforts involving approximately
100,000 journeymen and apprentices in over 400 local training facilities
at any given time.
If the United Association wanted to select the area which best reflects
this commitment to the training and excellence produced, it could well
look to Northern New Jersey.
In addition to our five-year apprenticeship programs, UA Local 475
offers continuing education opportunity that includes journeymen
training and certification, as well as an associate's degree program.
