| | Comments (0)
Students can discover about opportunities to earn money
while they are still learning at the Union Apprenticeship and Training Forum
on May 16 at the National Orange Show.

The free event, which is open to students, parents, counselors
and teachers, will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Damus Room at the
National Orange Show, which is located at 689 S. E St. in San Bernardino.
Participants should enter the fairgrounds at Gate 7 on Arrowhead Avenue.

Examples of some of the trades participating are electricians,
operating engineers, plumbing, pipe-fitting, surveying and roofing. Students
will have the opportunity to experience hands-on demonstrations, and
apprenticeship coordinators will relate their trades to real world
applications. San Bernardino County Superintendent Gary Thomas will welcome
students to the event.

Even though the event is free, participants must register for
the Apprenticeship Forum prior to May 8. To register online for the event,
go to www.oms.sbcss.k12.ca.us

The event is sponsored by the Central Labor Council AFL/CIO of
San Bernardino and Riverside counties and the San Bernardino County
Superintendent of Schools¹ Alliance for Education program. Partners include
Regional Occupational Programs, Operating Engineers Training Trust and the
Joint Electrical Apprenticeship and Journey Training Program.

In addition, there will be a student drawing for a laptop
computer, a personal donation by Malcolm and Helene Driggs.

For more information, contact Crystal Lopez at the County
Schools office at (909) 386-2636.
