A recent article in
The Boston Globe describes a new bill that requires MassDOT to utilize a pre-apprenticeship program for training construction workers:
"State legislators are hoping that a pre-apprenticeship program required by a transportation bond bill will give women and minorities more access to state construction jobs.
The provision in the bill mandates that the Massachusetts Department of Transportation train at least 300 young adults, women, minorities, or people from low-income families annually in a program that would last at least five years." (Powers, 25 April 2014)
