Jack Laurie University
With the construction industry suffering a workforce shortage in recent times, and many skilled floor covering installers moving into the latter years of their career, we took a bold step – creating the nation’s only merit-shop floor covering apprenticeship program. Jack Laurie University is prepared to develop and teach the next generation of interiors craftsmen to continue our legacy into a second century of success.
Certified
US Department of Labor
Certified by the U.S. Department of Labor, participants receive on-the-job training with a minimum rate of pay and have the opportunity to earn an associate’s degree from Vincennes University simultaneously. The curriculum culminates with the apprentice gaining a graduate’s certification as a trade journeyman before moving forward with a career in floor covering installation. With a program including classroom, lab, and field training, this provides an excellent path for men and women looking to make the construction industry their profession.
