Diversity is an important part of the culture for the Carpenters Employers-Apprenticeship Training Trust (CEATT). Diversity encompasses race, gender, ethnic group, age, personality, religion, sexual orientation, education, background and more. Our organization embraces differences and welcomes all. We achieve this by partnering with regional pre-apprenticeship programs, as well as, organizations that work with diverse communities. Networking, mentoring and socializing with a variety of groups will increase engagement by demonstrating to individuals from all backgrounds that they can achieve success in our industry and that we are willing to help them succeed. Our programs are bias free, and to all applicants, apprentices, and members we make the following non-discrimination pledge. (See below)
The CEATT will not discriminate against apprenticeship applicants, apprentices or journey persons based on race, color, religion, national origin, sex (including pregnancy and gender identity), sexual orientation, genetic information, or individuals having a disability, or persons 40 years old or older. The CEATT will take affirmative action to provide equal opportunity in apprenticeship and training for all qualified members and will operate the apprenticeship program as required under Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations, part 30.
