Greater Reading Chamber Commerce Quarterly Fall 2017 - 19
says Jon Kinsley, President and COO of Kinsley. "Now the schools
are coming to us saying that students need alternatives to college.
It's great that we're all on the same page, because there's going to
be a shortage of tradespeople. Anything we can do to attract young
people to apprentice programs now will be good for us and good
for the industry."
Deb Rohrbaugh, Associate Director of the Kinsley Education
Center and YCAL board member, spends many hours each year
visiting area high schools to provide information to students and
their families to make them aware of the opportunities Kinsley
Construction has to offer.
During this pilot year for the program with Kinsley, the focus is
on the construction trades. YCAL plans to expand the program in
the following years by partnering with more companies, providing
pre-apprenticeships to feed a variety of apprenticeship programs in
the county.
There are currently 15 students from seven area high schools that
are enrolled in the charter 2017-2018 class.
"In closing the loop between future growth opportunities and
the demand for skilled labor to meet the increased workload,"
Rohrbaugh explains, "we are interested in reaching out to the
business and educational communities in the Greater Reading area
to help identify students who may be interested in learning more
about our program, and are looking for people who are willing to
learn, work hard, travel, be at work on time and aspire to learn a
skill that is in demand. We are always willing to answer questions,
give tours and encourage young men and women to consider a
career in the trades."
The Future
Over the next decade Kinsley plans to expand into new market
sectors and geographic areas as we continue our growth in the MidAtlantic region. The programs we have developed to educate and
train our workforce will play a critical role in meeting the needs and
challenges associated with that growth. The future of construction is
exciting and we stand ready to accept the challenge.
