After researching & experiencing different trades, Melissa took the first open seat in the Electrical program. Her “just do it” attitude allowed her to excel in this newfound passion.

“STEP has been a really big resource to lean on,” says Apprentice #Electrician Melissa.

“They gave me pointers for looking for work and helped with my resume, tailoring it more to the industry. They got me the tools I needed, too.”

“STEP has been with me from the completion of my course making sure I was properly prepared for my new career as a plumber. The staff were always extremely friendly and made it increasingly obvious that helping me look for the employment that was right for me was their number one goal.

David Croteau, in particular, was always going the extra mile to make sure I was properly kitted out for my new job. If it wasn’t for him and STEP, I’m not sure I would’ve found employment that was such a great fit.

Every conversation and/or meeting I had with them made me glad I had accepted their help. It shocked me at how much they were willing to help me. If you are fresh out of your trade/skills program and need help getting the tools/PPE needed for your career, STEP is there to help you. They made a world of a difference for me and set me on the right path."

- David Fast, STEP participant and Plumber
