ACS Employees Among First to earn Workforce Development Professional Credentials

7/15/2022

 
Two employees of Adaptive Construction Solutions, Inc. (ACS), Houston, Texas, have competed NCCER’s new Construction Workforce Development Professional training and certification program under SEAA’s Craft Training Sponsorship. Carlos Pulido, Executive Vice President, and Karen Champion, Apprenticeship Manager, received the certification in order to distribute the training internally to ACS staff who recruit veterans into construction apprenticeships. 

“We hope the training will give them greater insight into the construction industry, NCCER certifications, and apprenticeships, as part of their own professional development and to help them provide information, advice, and guidance to prospective apprentices,” said Champion. 
​

“This is the first NCCER certification of this kind to be completed under SEAA’s sponsorship. Our members are dedicated to the training and development of industry professionals and we are proud to be able to assist them in their efforts,” said Tim Eldridge, President of Educational Services Unlimited and SEAA’s Craft Training and Assessment Coordinator. 

ACS, which hosted SEAA's first Career Fair last year, is the recipient of an $8 million grant from the U.S. Department of Labor. ACS is one of 30 organizations to receive funds from the Apprenticeship Building America grants. ​

Member Spotlight: American Steel & Precast Erectors

5/14/2021

 
PicturePM Group
SEAA member company, American Steel & Precast Erectors (ASPE), Greenfield, N.H., is a second-generation family business. Serving Canada, New England, and Atlantic Coast, ASPE provides erecting, equipment rental, and project management services.

Last year, ASPE was the steel erector on a cancer research facility expansion project for EMD Serono in Billerica, Mass. The project, recently featured on ENR NewEngland, utilized Prevention through Design (PtD), a safety program centered around identifying and eliminating jobsite hazards before they happen. Through a collaborative effort from project managers, architects, engineers, fabricators, and erectors, approximately 122 design changes were made in the name of safety.

“Design changes were implemented before and after we started the steel erection process,” said Marc Cox, Vice President, and Project Manager for ASPE. “Most of the changes were discussed during initial meetings to figure out if they would work and how they would be implemented.”

The changes ranged from lift support for ironworkers making moment welding connection on the
building steel frame, to rodbusters reducing the space between bars so that boots could span the
opening, which prevented numerous potential trip and fall hazards.

We encourage you to follow ASPE on Facebook and LinkedIn to keep up with the latest news. If your company would like to participate in our Member Spotlight series, submit your information here.
