Summary: The purpose of this Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is to support Perris Union High School District (PUHSD) efforts to provide students with exposure to careers in the construction industry. The Career Connections program is designed to help high school teachers introduce students to a career in carpentry. Students learn basic and intermediate carpentry, advanced skills in commercial and residential construction, and the essentials of construction site safety. The program also includes training in the employability that research shows employers value most, including: goal setting, positive attitude, punctuality, teamwork, and taking initiative.

This MOU memorializes the pre-apprenticeship program’s efforts to provide its participants with skills suitable for entry into various construction apprenticeship programs registered with the Division of Apprenticeship Standards (DAS) and administered by Southwest Carpenters Training Fund (SWCTF), and to establish the conditions and procedures, herein agreed to, for the apprenticeship program referral and intake process.

The term of this Agreement shall be from September 19, 2019 through June 30, 2020.
Funding: No fiscal impact.
