Las Vegas continues to set the pace for tradeshow activity, and Southern Nevada Teamsters Local 631 Convention Training Trust (Teamsters 631) is looking to train the next wave of skilled convention workers. From August 4 through August 15, Teamsters 631 will accept apprenticeship applications online and in person.
The program offers entry-level training tailored to the demands of tradeshow work.
