Cement Mason at Washington Cement Masons Apprenticeship Committee

The Washington Cement Masons Apprenticeship Committee sponsors this employer-based cement mason apprenticeship program in Seattle, WA. This non-union program is designed to prepare apprentices for skilled careers in cement masonry through a combination of structured job site training and formal technical education in one of the country's most active construction markets.

The three-year program includes 6,000 hours of on-the-job training and 432 hours of related technical instruction. Apprentices learn to place and finish concrete for floors, sidewalks, highways, and other structures while developing skills in troweling, screeding, surface repair, and waterproofing. Technical coursework addresses safety, construction math, material science, and equipment operation. Apprentices earn wages throughout training.

Graduates are prepared to work as skilled cement masons across the Seattle metro area and broader Pacific Northwest. The committee's employer-driven approach ensures training aligns closely with the needs of Washington's construction industry, positioning completers for steady, well-compensated careers.
