W ith job placement the name o f
the game in the trades, a new
cooperative program between Port­
land Com m unity College and The
Cement Masons Local #555 gives
both the best o f two worlds.
The college finds •’ real” projects
for the pre-apprentice shop program
underway this summer as well as
working out a cooperative arrange­
ment for the instructor's salary and
some supplies. When the work is
completed the college ends up with
new fo o tin g s , fo u n d a tio n s and
routine repairs.
The students in turn have an op­
p o rtu n ity to put together “ real”
work instead o f makeshift experi­
ments. And the union pulls together
the whole works at less cost than pre­
vious pre-apprenticeship arrange­
ments.
The cooperative contract is one o f
those unique custom programs the
college puts together to f i l l any
required educational need in their
district.
Roger Wood, Cement Masons ap­
prenticeship coordinator for Oregon
and Southwest Washington, empha­
sized some o f the advantages o f the
program. “ This is the first time we
have tried a program in Portland.
We were going to Camp Adair for
the two annual pre-apprenticeship
training sessions. The cost for that
was much more and we also had to
lace behavior problems.”
The union doesn’ t take long to cull
out the lazy or unproductive. “ When
we invest in the pre-apprenticeship
students, we want to be sure they’ ll
work out. They must have a good at­
titude,” Wood said.
In s tru c to r Gene C h ris tia n s o n ,
noted 13 students would complete
(his six-week instructional period.
" I t ’ s been hard to keep ahead o f
them ," he said with pride. ‘ ‘They’ ve
been a good group. Not one was even
late a d a y !"
Wood, a Sherwood resident, has
high praise for the Portland Cement
Association in Skokie, Illinois. They
fund a big share o f the cost through
the International Cement Masons
Union located in Illinois by taking
advantage o f Comprehensive Em­
ploym ent T ra in in g A ct (C E T A )
funds.
"T h ro u g h the C ETA funds the
students get paid $50 a week for at­
tending the class," Wood explained.
" A t the same time they earn 12 cre­
dits from the college.”
In the unique arrangement the
union pays the tuition, buys tools,
and provides a van to get the students
to the job. The college picks up not
only the cost o f the instructor, but
provides some o f the supplies and
gas for the van.
During the first si* week program
the students basically worked eight
hours a day. They did some routine
patching and resurfacing at the PCC
Stadium Center and then transferred
out to the Rock Creek Center where
they poured the foundation for the
storage area, finished the rabbit
house and did the footings for the
landscape shade house.
The instructor and union coor­
dinator place the pre-apprenticeship
students w ith an em ployer and
follow them on the job for another
nine weeks. "S om e are ready to
work before the six weeks are over,”
Christianson said. "T h is time we
placed one after the first week and
it’s not unusual to put them on the
job after the third week," he con­
tinued.
" I f the student is quick enough to
bold a job and the employer patient
enough to help, we can sometimes
place them s o o n e r," W ood ex­
plained. The follow through is one of
the bonus points o f the PCC
program. "Because the college pays
the instructor we can help the student
more on the jo b ," Wood said.
