An ad hog committee composed of Stewart Stewart Wagner of the General JOB PRINTING Orono Weekly Times ' Motors Fabricating plant, Reinhard Mantzel of the Canada Employment Centre and J.J. White of Westcane Sugar Ltd. will work with representatives of the interested interested companies in the development development of such a training program. E.A. Barks, President of Cooper Metalcraft, representing representing the precision metal fabricators fabricators in the Durham Region, Region, has solicited the DOIT committee's assistance in having the precision metal fabricating trade recognized as a "certified" skilled trade. The reason for this request for help is a result of many years in an industry which has continually experienced growth rates without a proper training facility to develop existing or potential employees. employees. It was felt that develqpment of an Apprenticeship Apprenticeship Training Program that; can be recognized pro- vincially and nationally would encourage young people to commence long term training in the secure knowledge, that the industry could support their career expectations. The metal fabricators fabricators believe that a "feeder system" of new employees ready to be trained trained and willing to commence ..work in their industry, would provide the solution to a chronic need for new personnel. personnel. After some discussion at a recent meeting, the DOIT committee agreed to support the efforts of the metal fabricating companies through the establishment of a sub-committee which would deal specifically with the development, lobbying and organizational efforts required. required.
