Join us in a riveting conversation on Episode 84 of our podcast, where we delve into the transformative world of skilled labor training. This week, we feature two distinguished guests: Trent Cotney, a prominent Partner at Adams and Reese LLP, and John Kenney, the dynamic CEO of Cotney Consulting Group.

Our in-depth discussion centers around the pivotal movement to lower the apprenticeship age to under eighteen, a crucial step that promises to revolutionize the industry by allowing students to embark on hands-on training with experienced contractors at a younger age.

As the year draws to a close, Trent and John also share valuable insights on end-of-the-year planning, offering listeners a glimpse into the strategic minds that have shaped the industry.

And, in the spirit of Thanksgiving, our esteemed guests reflect on the year gone by, sharing personal anecdotes and expressing gratitude for the milestones and challenges that have enriched their journey.

Tune in to Episode 84 for an enlightening and thought-provoking exploration of the skilled labor landscape, led by two of its most influential voices.
