OPERATING ENGINEERS LOCAL 150 APPRENTICESHIP FUND COVID-19 VACCINATION POLICY

Effective May 3, 2022, the Board of Trustees suspended the mandatory COVID-19 vaccine policy. While all individuals are encouraged to obtain the COVID-19 vaccine, the vaccine will no longer be required to enter the ASIP premises.

The mandatory COVID-19 vaccine policy was in place from October 19, 2021 through May 2, 2022 and all decisions made pursuant to that policy during that timeframe remain valid and unchanged.

We appreciated the compliance with this policy during those challenging times.

The center boasts 342,000 square feet of space housing an indoor training area, almost 200 pieces of heavy equipment, 30 classrooms, construction material testing lab, state of the art welding facility, equipment simulator lab, a 200-seat auditorium, and much more. Instructors are available to members six days a week, Monday through Saturday, except holidays.
