Duffy, president of SUNY Adirondack. \u201cThis degree provides a strong foundation in the best business and management practices to round out their invaluable hands-on expertise.\u201d<!--more--><br \/>\nA journeyworker in building trades or advanced manufacturing may earn up to 30 credits toward the new AOS degree. The remaining required credits will be earned in courses such as public speaking, business law, accounting, computer science and principles of business, among others.<br \/>\n\u201cI could not be prouder of the relationship Plumbers &amp; Steamfitters Local 773 has forged with SUNY Adirondack. The transformation the union has made over past 100 years is incredible, starting in rental facilities and ending up in the multimillion-dollar training facility we have today,\u201d said Mike Jarvis, business manager of Plumbers &amp; Steamfitters Local 773. \u201cThis degree is the next step forward: SUNY recognizing our apprenticeship training program opens endless opportunities for our members, which is very exciting.\u201d<br \/>\nOfficials said the program is groundbreaking in that any journeyworker in building trades and advanced manufacturing from anywhere in the U.S. can gain advanced standing toward degree completion at SUNY Adirondack.<br \/>\n\u201cWe are excited to partner with such a prominent educational system as SUNY,\u201d said Mike Mastropietro, business manager of International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 236. \u201cOur registered apprenticeship programs have long been recognized by the Department of Labor as the gold standard and the addition of SUNY\u2019s support speaks to this. Their commitment sheds a desperately needed light on the importance and value of building trades as a valid, fulfilling career path.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cBuilding a strong and highly trained workforce is vital to maintaining a vibrant regional economy,\u201d said Assemblyman Dan Stec of Queensbury. \u201cContinuing professional education is a cornerstone in this effort and I commend our local building trades and SUNY Adirondack for establishing this academic program.\u201d<br \/>\nThose interested in starting an apprenticeship program should visit www.labor.ny.govapprenticeship\/appindex.shtm.
