Ohio’s Newest Journey-Level Carpenters: Class of 2025

COLUMBUS, OH — On February 15th, 2025, the Central Midwest Carpenters Union celebrated 354 apprentices in Ohio who put in the hours, learned their trade, and earned their spot as journey-level members. They marked the occasion with friends, family, and the union brothers and sisters who had their backs along the way.

A highlight from the evening included the presentation of camo-colored hardhats to the graduating veteran, active, and reserve status apprentices in the United States Armed Forces. This segment highlights the Helmets to Hardhats program that offers those service members direct-entry into the construction trades. Attendees also heard from speakers including Ohio Carpenters’ Joint Apprenticeship and Training Program’s Director of Education Dan Sustin, graduate speaker Seth Hiser, and Central Midwest Carpenters Executive Secretary-Treasurer Matt McGriff.
