Scott Nelson president Woodwork Career Alliance of North America

President’s Message: Thank You Sponsors for Helping Us Make This a Record Year

As the end of the year is quickly approaching, I just want to thank all of the INDustry sponsors and partners for their continued support of WCA. Without their backing we would not be able to offer our future workforce updated education programs and credentialing services. Please try and support those businesses whenever possible.

2023 will go down as WCA’s best year ever! Through November, we enrolled over 1,200 candidates into the Passport program and have issued more than 1,100 credentials. Our retention of high school and postsecondary woodworking programs as EDUcation members and wood products firms as MANufacturing members is maintaining at about 80%.

Hopefully 2024 will see a significant increase of MANufacturing members with the introduction of online employee training modules early next year.

Finally, I’d be remiss not to express my personal thanks to Patrick Molzahn, who will be retiring from Madison College at the end of the year. Patrick was a major mover and shaker for the WCA from the very beginning. His contributions to our cause have been so many and varied. On behalf of the WCA, thank you Patrick and be well!

WCA wishes all an enjoyable Holiday Season and a Prosperous New Year!!!

Sincerely,

Scott Nelson
President
