We were thrilled to see Matt C., (right) our talented Machine Operator Apprentice, enjoyed his experience at Navy Yard Night at Citizens Bank Park with the Phillies! Matt won tickets from @phillyshipyard to attend the June 18 game against the Padres. He had an incredible time with his family by his side. It was a well-deserved reward for all his hard work and dedication. We're so glad to see our team members having a great time outside of work as well!
What a wonderful surprise! Recently, our partners Canteen North America surprised the entire shipyard with what we dubbed, PSI Hoagie Day! They treated all PSI employees to a delicious free lunch, allowing everyone to pick from a variety of mouthwatering hoagies and snacks. Thank you Canteen North America for thinking of our workforce and offering a well-deserved break time to everyone. We are grateful for your thoughtfulness and support!🥪🎉
Last Thursday marked a significant milestone for Philly Shipyard. We introduced and held the kick-off meeting for our first-ever employee resource group (ERG) at Philly Shipyard. This inaugural meeting was an empowering start for our women's group, which aims to address the underrepresentation of women in the trades and maritime industry. The support and enthusiasm from our 41 participants was easily felt and the discussion was impactful.There were in-depth discussions on our vision, goals, and action plans to make a positive impact on the industry. A big shoutout to Essen Bakery for providing the catering from their local Philadelphia bakery. The delicious food added an extra special touch to the event- not to mention its woman-owned! Exciting times lie ahead as we work together to effect change and champion diversity and inclusion in our industry.

Additionally, as students of the trade, apprentices are given the tools to earn certifications and college credits as they progress into multi-skilled workers. There’s more to explore.
