Congratulations Andrew Hurley on receiving the AMBA Metal Building FIRST-YEAR Apprenticeship Bursary!

Harv Friesen has decided to retire and wind down Kesho Construction, an outstanding and reputable metal building erection company that has been in business for over 30 years!
Harv served on the AMBA board since the very beginning of AMBA (1995) and for over 18 years as a board director, he worked hard to encourage both young and older metal building erectors and workers to attend all available training and apprenticeship programs. As an owner of an erection company, Harv felt that it was important to promote the metal building industry as a legitimate and certified trade – he fully supported his workers through advanced education and training programs.
