TESTIMONIALS
“The ICATT Apprenticeship Program is an outstanding opportunity for younger generations. ICATT gave my son a sense of purpose and a direction in his life he’s excited about. He’s become a much more mature person. He works hard because he doesn’t want to let the company down; he even cares about grades more because they matter to the company, not just his mom and dad.”
Cathy Splett, Mother of an Apprentice
