Working For Your Workers: Homegrown Truss Technicians
- Hiring and training locally, also referred to as the "homegrown" method, has the greatest potential for meeting the industry’s need for technicians.
- Many potential technicians can be found in the local technical college, and some may start in the shop and work their way up.
- Component manufacturers have been successful with employing homegrown technicians; one reason is they come up through the ranks, and the pay is competitive with the typical salaries for these jobs in the industry.
