The East Valley Institute of Technology has entered into a significant agreement with the Alliance of Battery Equipment Contractors to offer paid apprenticeships at the new LG Energy Solution plants set to open in Queen Creek. This partnership aims to bridge the gap between education and employment by providing students with hands-on experience in the rapidly growing battery manufacturing sector.

Through this initiative, participants will gain valuable skills and knowledge while working directly in a state-of-the-art facility. The apprenticeships are designed to prepare students for various roles within the industry, enhancing their employability and ensuring a skilled workforce for the future.

As the demand for electric vehicle batteries continues to rise, this collaboration not only supports the local economy but also positions the East Valley as a hub for innovative energy solutions. The program is expected to attract a diverse group of aspiring professionals eager to contribute to the evolving landscape of renewable energy and technology.
