Gates & Sons Training Programs
March 5, 2024
How do vocational training and career development in the construction industry reflect workers’ changing needs and opportunities? In a conversation about Gates & Sons Training Programs, Don Valdez, the National Retail Sales Manager at Gates & Sons, discusses with company President Jim Huscroft the broad spectrum of training initiatives they’ve been implementing, especially highlighting their programs’ global reach and diversity in recent years.
“I’m really trying to stress that there’s more to career development than just going to college,” Valdez said. I’m trying to bring people into the trades, and I’m doing that by presenting our product and telling them how they can utilize that in their career development.”
