In June, Journey level members successfully completed a 4-day leadership program at the International Training Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. The program develops leadership skills centered around mentoring, coaching, and communications.  Our journey level leaders are now prepared to engage with newer members, lead by example, promote positive work environments & productivity on the job. 

The UBC actively promotes a constructive job site culture, where members value and motivate each other to achieve their highest potential and ensure maximum productivity. 

This program is open to UBC Journey level members who are considered "Heavy Hitters" in the field. Those who have the ability and willingness to influence others.
