West Virginia Joint Labor Union and Management Apprenticeship and Training Advisory Council (WVJLUMATAC)
The purpose of the WVJLUMATAC is to further the apprenticeship training programs that are registered with the United States Department of Labor Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training. Through the application of this purpose, the WVJLUMATAC is a major contributor to providing West Virginia with a world-class workforce that will enhance the economic development of the state.
The WVJLUMATAC strives to keep current the skills of journeymen whose crafts are constantly changing as new technologies emerge. The WVJLUMATAC encourages training of apprentices and journeymen beyond the technology of their crafts through collaboration with the members of the Council to enhance the skills and employment of a quality workforce in West Virginia.
To accomplish these objectives, the WVJLUMATAC brings together representatives of labor, management, government, and education in partnership and cooperation to develop a world-class workforce and vigorous economy for the State of West Virginia.
