Sprinkler apprentice Tyler Hayes was named this year’s winner of the Standard For Excellence award at the UA National Apprentice Competition. The Standard for Excellence trophy is awarded to the Competitor that best exemplifies the tenets and values of the UA as determined by their peers. Points considered are attitude, professionalism, quality of work, and any other quality personally held in high regard for a tradesperson. Way to go Tyler!

UA Local 56 would like to recognize and commend our apprentices, Tyler Hayes, Riley Brown and Devin Vanderkooi who competed at this year’s competition. Although they didn’t finish first in their trade category they all represented Local 56 in a very positive and professional way. These individuals have shown tremendous skills and have a long and successful career ahead of them in the UA. Great job Brothers!
