PSEG’S Ready2Work program, a 600 thousand dollar private investment in the residents of the city of Bridgeport, prepared Bridgeport residents for careers in the construction trades. The apprenticeship readiness training program consisted of five classes over a 14-month period to prepare all interested Bridgeport residents, including minorities, women and veterans, for apprenticeships in the various building trades. PSEG designed this program in accordance with commitments made in a Community Environmental Benefit Agreement (CEBA). The program was administered by The WorkPlace, with comprehensive training supplied by Building Pathways Connecticut.
