CRAFT UPDATES

Craft Trainings

All classes are available in English and Spanish. If someone is interested in registering, they can go to our Company Home page under Learning and Development or email crafttraining@mccarthy.com, Catherine Scott (cscott@mccarthy.com), or Miguel Lopez (mlopez@ mccarthy.com).

Start Safe

To expedite the assimilation of incoming Craft Professionals, this program was designed to provide both the new employee with a better understanding of McCarthy’s commitment to them and McCarthy’s expectations of them. This training is set to target new employees (with six months of experience or less). If requested, McCarthy supervisors will receive an assessment of the new employee’s base job identifier skills and abilities. Attendees will receive their OSHA 10 card at the end of course.

Labor Cost And Productivity Lcp

The instructor-led course aims to equip Foremen with the knowledge and skills needed to effectively plan and manage labor resources on projects. By the end of this course, participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of labor planning principles, techniques, and best practices, enabling them to optimize workforce utilization, enhance productivity, and improve project outcomes. Thank you to Miguel Arguelles, Enrique Guizar, and Rana Snethen for delivering this course and driving the partnership between our Learning and Development Team and Operations.

Virttual Esl Course

Texas employees will have the opportunity to take Virtual ESL Courses to support their professional development. Trainings will be provided through Community Family Centers (CFC). There is not a cost to McCarthy for this course.

The first class begins on July 18 and is already full. However, future opportunities will be coming up in the future. Any additional partners or Craft employees that are Texas residents will be able to enroll in the ESL Course through CFC. Please have all request sent to our Craft Training email address CraftTraining@McCarthy.com.
