🎓🔨 Congratulations to the BOOM Class of 2026! 🎉

On May 7, MTC celebrated the graduation of students in the Building Occupational Opportunities in the Midlands (BOOM) program. Nine students from school districts across the Midlands earned both a 15-hour OSHA certificate and a Residential Construction certificate through hands-on training and real-world construction experience.

The BOOM program helps high school students with disabilities develop workforce, leadership, and life skills that prepare them for success in the skilled trades. We’re proud of all they’ve accomplished and excited for what’s ahead!

The recording of our recent session, “Apprenticeships in Practice: An Employer’s Perspective,” is now available.

We had a great discussion with employers highlighting how apprenticeships are making a real impact in the workplace—not just in building skills, but in strengthening a sense of belonging and camaraderie across teams.

If you’re exploring how apprenticeships can support your workforce strategy or enhance employee engagement, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
