Trumbull Community Action Program’s new Apprentice Training Program may be just the opportunity for you!  We hire unemployed, income eligible residents of Trumbull County to become apprentice-trainees and learn a variety of mechanical and construction skills from our on-staff mentor.  All apprentice-trainees will be paid an hourly wage for the duration of the training program.  The training will include hands-on instruction in the areas of basic carpentry, porches, steps and railings, basic finish carpentry, window and door repair, drain and faucet repair, electrical fixtures, outlets and switches, and helping people avoid repair scams.  Upon completion of the program, a number of apprentice-trainees will have developed the skills necessary to enter the workforce directly or even start your own small business.  In some cases, apprentice-trainees will be prepared to enroll in further educational institutes.
