“We’ve had the good fortune to work with many Unions in our efforts to provide career pathway training to Native Communities. Our experiences with the Operating Engineers Local 49 have always exceeded the norm. They have always been responsive, courteous, and willing to go the extra mile whenever possible to make things happen. “ -Nicholas Kedrowski Owner & Managing Partner , Five Skies Training
