Local apprentice becomes 1000th participant in LNG Canada’s TTF
VANCOUVER – An electrical apprentice from Prince George has become the 1,000th participant in LNG Canada’s Trades Training Fund (TTF). Marissa McTavish began her Level 3 training at CNC this month.
The TTF supports industry and apprenticeship training in the construction sector across the province. So far, $1.5 million has helped cover the costs of training for apprentices.
“As a single mom, this opportunity to develop my skills in the electrical trade means steady employment, good wages, and self-respect,” said McTavish. “I want to thank Ben at Primus Electric and LNG Canada for this support in completing my apprenticeship and launching my career.”
McTavish works at Primus Electric and they had sponsored her with the Fund saying that “LNG Canada’s support makes a big difference to our small electrical company and to Marissa, who is a great example of a hard-working British Columbian looking for an opportunity to support her family with a rewarding career in the construction trades,” said Primus.
