Helmets to Hardhats
As a veteran of the U.S. Military, you have served your country well, providing security for all Americans. The Carpenters Training Committee of Northern California (CTCNC) wants to give back to those who have given so much.

Returning veterans have at times had difficulty finding good jobs. Therefore, the CTCNC has created an opportunity for Veterans to gain direct entry into our apprenticeship programs. The CTCNC will provide the free training, and will help find careers with contractors throughout the area. These contractors are "arming" themselves for the construction boom of the near future.

The CTCNC offers many programs including; Carpentry, Acoustical Installer, Drywall/Lather, Hardwood Floor Layer, Insulator, Millwright, Pile Driver, Scaffold Erector and Shingler in the construction industry. Watch this video for some addition information

Helmets to Hardhats are a national program that connects transitioning active-duty and reserve-component members with training and employment opportunities within the construction industry.

The statewide direct-entry program provides a common agreement between Building and Construction Trades, Joint Apprenticeship Training Councils, locals (at their discretion) and Helmets to Hardhats leaders to support candidates in that state. The program allows candidates to start construction careers soon after they apply, and also gives them credit for military training and experience.

Things to consider:
  • You should have a basic set of hand tools. 
  • You will be required to attend classes 4 times a year, over the course of 4 years

Benefits of Joining the Carpenters Apprenticeship Program:
  • High pay, great medical insurance and a pension and annuity plans.
  • High quality training at well-resourced training centers that are recognized by Regional Education Certifying Councils and Boards.
  • Use your Montgomery or post 9/11 GI Bill or other veteran educational benefits.
  • Earn while you learn.
  • Receive on the job training and get top notch classroom instruction.
