The Florida Masonry Apprentice and Education Foundation, Inc.
The FMAEF is an Accredited Training Sponsor (ATS) for NCCER and sponsors over 100 high school and post-secondary programs along with programs in Juvenile Justice, Youth Build, Department of Corrections, and other re-entry programs. These “pre-apprentice” training opportunities are the basis for the Florida Pathways to Apprenticeship Program.
The Mission of the Foundation is to coordinate and provide education of the masonry trade. The strategic goals of the Foundation are:
Increase activities to coordinate education and conduct skill building training to
the masonry, specifying and construction industries.
Increase education efforts about apprenticeship to Florida legislators, Department of Education, the Agency for Workforce Innovation and local Workforce Development Boards.
Maintain the current apprenticeship feeder systems such as pre-apprenticeship, Workforce Development and community based programs.
