North America’s Building Trades Unions Joins CEWD Board of Directors, Strengthening Industry Labor Voice
The Center for Energy Workforce Development (CEWD) announced on March 3rd that North America’s Building Trades Unions (NABTU) will now hold a seat on the CEWD Board of Directors, significantly bolstering the labor perspective at the leadership table. Trevor Falk, Special Assistant to the President at NABTU, has been appointed as CEWD’s newest director.
NABTU is an alliance of 14 national and international unions in the building and construction industry that collectively represent over 3 million skilled craft professionals. Their addition to the Board comes at a pivotal moment, as the energy sector faces an unprecedented demand for skilled labor driven by historic federal investments in American energy dominance.
NABTU’s presence on the Board complements the long-standing leadership of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), which has served on the CEWD Board since the organization’s inception. The combination of NABTU and IBEW leadership creates a powerful labor voice, ensuring that workforce development strategies prioritize expanded visibility for labor roles, high-quality apprenticeships, and family-sustaining careers.
