In fact, Jacksonville is the fifth fastest-growing city in America, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. And with that comes a lot of questions about jobs, real estate, finances and more. That’s why we’ve started a brand new streaming series, branching off of our very successful policy showand it’s a podcast-style show that addresses all of the topics related to our city’s economy and surrounding areas.
It’s conversational, it’s a bit informal and it’s a way to really take our time and dive into topics that are important to all of us. We begin our series by speaking with Christina Thomas about the Northeast Florida Builders Association’s apprenticeship program that helps with building a skilled workforce. Then, we sit down with Mike Brannen from Miller Electric and second-year apprentice, Gabbi Karjala. They share their secrets about how the Miller Electric apprenticeship program is a win-win for employer and employee.
