The Trades Graduation Ceremony combined graduates of both the shipyard’s Apprentice Program and Worker Skills Progression Program, totaling 165 new certified tradespeople at Hawaii’s largest industrial employer.

The 165 students will work in the following areas: shipfitters, sheet metal mechanics, welders, machinists, marine machinery mechanics, electricians, electronic measurement equipment mechanics, electronics mechanics, toolroom mechanics, pipefitters, air conditioning equipment mechanics, fabric workers, plastic fabricators, shipwrights, painters, riggers, non-destructive test inspectors, heavy mobile equipment mechanics, and insulators.

Strategically located in the heart of the Pacific, it is the most comprehensive fleet repair and maintenance facility between the U.S. West Coast and the Far East.
