About Us

The Western Missouri and Kansas Laborers Apprenticeship is a letter of intent program which means any new apprentice coming into our program has to provide us with a letter of intent to hire provided by the hiring contractor. If a person wants to work as a Laborer in our industry he or she will need to make application to our program at any of our designated apprenticeship application locations. To make application 3 things will be needed at the time the person applies, a birth certificate, a social security card and proof that they have successfully completed 12th grade (high school diploma, GED or transcripts are accepted)

When a person applies they will be asked to fill out an application and be provided with a letter of introduction and a list of signatory contractors. At that point in the process we expect the applicant to show us they want to become a Construction Craft Laborer by going out and seeking employment from a signatory union contractor. This process does two things, it shows us the applicant is dedicated enough to find their first job and provides the contractor a chance to interview and choose their own apprentice to train in the specifics of their particular niche of our industry.
