LL Flooring and NFCAP Partner with the Gary Job Corps Center to Open Flooring Installation Training Center
LL Flooring, one of the nation’s largest specialty retailers of hard-surface flooring, and the National Flooring Contractors Apprenticeship Program (NFCAP) are marking a milestone with the opening of the initiative’s first training facility in partnership with the Gary Job Corps Center in San Marcos, Texas. This spring, participating Gary Job Corps students will begin the NFCAP pre-apprenticeship program to prepare for apprenticeship placements with LL Flooring’s network of independent contractors.
The NFCAP facility at Gary Job Corps includes classrooms, training stations and state-of-the-art equipment for training. Pre-apprentices will work with quality LL Flooring products to hone their flooring installation skills, and courses will be led by NFCAP-approved instructors. Students will also be connected with participating LL Flooring contractors to serve as mentors for their apprenticeship.
