Gabriel’s Story
Empowering Success
“Gabriel started at EMBERS one year ago after having heard about EMBERS from an EMBERS worker at a construction job site in Vancouver. The worker spoke highly of EMBERS and told Gabriel about the training opportunities that EMBERS provides. Gabriel was keen on the EMBERS training opportunities and was specifically interested in the apprenticeship program. He reached out to Lynne at EMBERS and got started right away!
“EMBERS, and Lynne especially, have been incredibly helpful and have assisted me in taking big steps in my career!”
He has now completed his Level 1 Carpentry program at BCIT. Gabriel is currently
working as a Carpenter and is planning on taking more carpentry classes. Gabriel has
also completed his Skidsteer Operator and Fall Protection Tickets through EMBERS Training. Gabriel has embraced our training programs to enhance his career and w”e are looking forward to seeing his accomplishments!
“Don’t limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, remember, you can achieve.”
