LECET markets training
Wisconsin LECET worked with the Wisconsin Laborers Training Center to design and distribute marketing materials for the upcoming 1998 training schedule.
The Trainer, a brochure with course descriptions and the Training Center schedule was mailed to all laborers. It was also distributed to Local Laborers Unions and major contractor organizations.
In addition, a special issue of Wisconsin LECET News was published detailing the strategic plan for laborers training put together by the Laborers-AGC Education and Training Fund. A poster with the course schedule of the Wisconsin Laborers Training Center was inserted in the newsletter. The Wisconsin LECET News and the poster were mailed to all signatory contractors.
Copies of these marketing materials are available from your local union, the Wisconsin Laborers Training Center or the Wisconsin Laborers District Council.
