The school provides vocational instruction for students who are serving as apprentices, providing them with the opportunity to upgrade skills or change careers entirely.<\/p>\n<p>Each program includes two semesters, lasting about 14 weeks each and consisting of around 75 hours of instruction. Course descriptions are current at the time the course catalog is published. RATC regularly adds classes to its curriculum to meet the changing needs of its students, and course dates may also change at the school\u2019s discretion.<\/p>\n<h3>Scaffolding Solutions\u2019 Partnership With CTC<\/h3>\n<p>Much of the benefits of scaffolding training are related to minimizing the risk of injury to those using this equipment. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) enforces safety regulations for workplace equipment, including scaffolding.<\/p>\n<p>Scaffolding Solutions supports training conducted through Richmond\u2019s CTC because it not only improves safety among employees but other visitors to our worksites. This training helps us support the culture of safety we\u2019ve integrated into every position on our professional team.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/scaffoldingsolutions.com\/employment\/\">Learn more about employment opportunities with Scaffolding Solutions<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/rtc.rvaschools.net\/\">Learn more about Richmond\u2019s Career Technical Center<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Technical Skills &amp; Safety Training A career in scaffolding requires its own specialized training due to the nature of the work performed.
