On this episode of Paint ED...Hope. We've heard it so many times…where are the new painters going to be coming from? Is nothing being done about the labor shortage? Proposed solutions are popping up everywhere, but PDCA is throwing all in with Teach Initiative. Michael Smith is the Executive Director at Teach, and he is working to bring everyone together to develop training resources and get them in the hands of schools and workforce development programs. Things are moving pretty quickly on this front. PDCA will be finishing up filming our Trade Best Practice Series to deliver to Teach at the end of 2018, and we hope to see this in the hands of students, adult learners, and painting companies at the beginning of 2019. For all you who are worrying about the labor crisis…help is on the way.
