About Building Futures
Building Futures launched in 2007 as a construction industry partnership focused on leveraging the Registered Apprenticeship workforce development model. For over 100 years, unions and employers have jointly operated quality, registered apprenticeships in construction occupations to train individuals as highly-skilled tradespeople. Our work spans three distinct but highly aligned areas.
For the benefit of low-income Rhode Islanders, Building Futures developed and operates a comprehensive pre-apprenticeship program to prepare diverse, low-income men and women for success in employment as registered apprentices in the building trades. In addition, we work in partnership with a wide range of stakeholders to ensure construction projects provide employment opportunities for apprentices at the appropriate level to meet future demand for skilled labor through our Apprentice Utilization Program. Our pre-apprenticeship and apprentice utilization program provide an effective workforce development system in Rhode Island’s construction sector.
From this foundation, we have established Apprenticeship Rhode Island, an initiative to expand the use of Registered Apprenticeship beyond the construction sector. Now, we are helping develop new registered apprenticeship programs in multiple sectors, including healthcare, information technology, advanced manufacturing, and boat building. Working with employers, industry partnerships, and government and community-based organizations, we are spreading the proven Registered Apprenticeship model to benefit the state’s workforce and economy.
