Ten journey workers will supervise apprentices, providing essential training that integrates customer service standards recognized by the U.S. Department of Labor, ultimately leading to nationally recognized certificates for participants.

By collaborating with the Department of Labor, DFS is setting a precedent for other businesses in the region to develop tailored training solutions that meet their specific needs and enhance service quality.
