Journeyman Classes
The Training Center provides continuing education classes, in keeping with the terms of the labor agreement. Specifics of the painter upgrade program and journeyman continuing education are determined by the Painter's Union Management Partnership (PUMP) committee, which meets monthly at District Council #5.
 
The contract year runs from April 1 thru March 31. Emphasis is placed on safety training. Click here for a list of safety classes and their expiration dates.
 
Most classes are held at the Regional Training Center (RTC) located at 12687 NE Whitaker Way, Portland OR 97230. Some classes are offered in the Salem and Eugene areas.

Credit for Outside Vendor Training

You may be able to receive credit for training obtained elsewhere (through your employer, at an American Red Cross facility etc). Submit your documentation to the Training Center and we will forward it to the PUMP committee for approval at its monthly meeting. Credit is given only for training obtained outside of paid hours.
 
 
Respirator Fit Tests
The Training Center conducts respirator training session and fit testing. Follow the instructions for setting up the appointments. Note that you must have a medical check first (good for three years), followed by the training and a fit test at the Training Center.
