This is a list of leaders: men and women trained through a formal leadership program in skills that make jobsites more productive, safe, and efficient. Some were trained when they were 3rd year apprentices; others as journeymen. A good number of them graduated from both courses.
In the 3rd Year Apprentice: Helping to Build Our Industries training, apprentices learn how professionalism, productivity, skill, and attitude contribute to their success, and to the success of the contractors who employ them. They also gain a greater understanding of the UBC, industries served, and the important role they play for both.
In the UBC Journeymen: Building Leadership for a Strong Future training, Journeymen develop leadership, mentoring, coaching, and communication skills, and learn to engage with newer members and lead by example, all while promoting positive work environments and productivity on the job.
Journeymen Leaders have an enormous impact on job site culture. With thousands of these Journeymen Leaders actively embracing a constructive culture on UBC job sites, the Brotherhood has recognized “Next Level Leaders” as those who consistently coach, mentor and motivate others, while taking on a leadership role on the jobsite. Ideal participants are those who pursue high-level communication skills, leadership characteristics, and have been active in the development of their Brothers and Sisters in the field.
