Construction companies expect students to commit to a drug-free lifestyle, including abstaining from THC/Marijuana, despite its legal status in Colorado. At The Master’s Apprentice, we require all students to be drug-free. However, previous use of any substance, including THC/Marijuana, does not disqualify a student from joining our program.

Have you ever experienced a substance abuse issue? (This does not apply to THC or nicotine use) *

Yes

How long have you been sober? If it's been less than 6 months, we encourage you to reapply later and prioritize your recovery first! *

Important Note: Past substance abuse does not disqualify you from applying to our program. However, based on our experience, we have found that individuals with at least six months of sobriety are more likely to succeed in both completing our program and establishing a long-term career in the construction trades industry. If your sobriety has been less than 6 months, we encourage you to reapply later and prioritize your recovery first!
