    District mulls 100G payment to help get grads in trade unions - Philadelphia Daily News
    If approved, the district would hire Egan Bloom & Associates, a Plymouth Meeting-based public-affairs and management-consulting firm, for up to $10,000 per month, but not to exceed $100,000.

    Among the firm's jobs would be to help school officials and the powerful Philadelphia Building Trades Council negotiate and implement a project labor agreement, which would set down terms for boosting the number of graduates in the unions' apprenticeships. These training programs often lead to jobs.
