The National Joint Apprenticeship & Training Committee (NJATC) held its annual National Training Institute (NTI) in Knoxville, TN for 19 years until 2008. The NTI is a joint program between the National Electrical Contractors Association and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers to train qualified workers, and is perhaps the largest apprenticeship and training program of its kind. The NJATC is currently in it’s third year of a 3 year contract with the University of Michigan to host the NTI, with an option to renew.
Tents, tables and chairs will be spread throughout the Ingalls Mall area for the Opening Ceremony Dinner and all food will be served on University of Michigan property.
The sponsor will submit an application for approval from the State of Michigan Liquor Control Commission for temporary sales, service and consumption of alcoholic beverages in the defined areas pursuant to the M.L.C.C. regulations.
The sponsor agrees to obtain all necessary permits, to provide evidence of proper liability insurance as required, to comply with all City regulations governing the use of the streets and will reimburse the City for all event expenses.
Notification of the street closing will be provided through the City’s website.
