Attack on the BNAP
If you have watched the news lately, you know that the Department of Labor (DOL) it doing its best to provide an inferior, and potentially dangerous, alternative to our Boilermaker National Apprenticeship Program (BNAP).
Why? Because they want to boost their profits. When they cut corners on training, they put more money in their own pockets. Click here for more information and to find out how you can help! |
