Benefits of Training

The following points provide the practical basis for the NCCER standardized training process:

  • As industries compete more fiercely for fewer qualified workers, a professional, accredited training program that offers industry-recognized credentials and a clearly defined career path will attract and retain high-caliber workers.
  • In today’s highly competitive markets, clients demand increased project quality. Only those contractors with trained and skilled workers capable of meeting that demand will succeed.
  • Standardized training will create a national pool of construction, maintenance, pipeline workers documented, and portable skills.
