Cerris Systems - Omaha Hosts Heavy Metal Summer Experience

Our Omaha team recently participated in the Heavy Metal Summer Experience (HMSE), a national multi-week program that introduces high school students and recent graduates (ages 15-19) to careers in the building trades through hands-on projects, working alongside craft professionals, and discovering local apprenticeship training opportunities.

Participants spent time with our tradespeople, both in the fab shop and in the “classroom,” learning about several aspects of the mechanical construction process from preconstruction to fabrication and installation. The students celebrated the conclusion of the program with a graduation ceremony in Omaha.

We couldn’t be prouder of these students and recent graduates for completing this program and for helping them develop skills in the trades. Participating in programs like this across the country is one of several ways we’re working to develop our workforce and introduce next-generation leaders to the construction industry.
