“FarSight is a strong advocate for the new home residential and building industry and recognizes the value and need for programs of this nature,” explains General Manager, Johnathan Schickedanz. “Minister McNaughton’s recent visit gave us, as a home builder, the unique opportunity to discuss our experiences in the industry and shared concerns for the need of a skilled labour force.”
“Our new corporate office build was the perfect opportunity for us to participate in this invaluable training and assistance program”, continues FarSight President, Richard Schickedanz. “By offering hands-on coaching, guidance, and support we’re working to ensure their long-term success in the construction field.”
The OHBA Job-Ready Program offers six-month paid industry job placements, which provide entry-level practical skills training and experience to better prepare job seekers for careers in the construction industry.
