Construction is one of the largest industries in the world requiring approximately 250,000 skilled workers to complete new construction projects each year. Skilled workers are paid well, earning substantially higher wages than many other industries. Students train for jobs in construction, home remodeling and roofing. Actual on-the-job experience is provided through hands-on projects. Rules of safety are stressed and students are expected to meet industry standards required in this area. Students will build projects using power tools and the latest in construction technology. Cooperative paid work experience may be available. Students successfully completing the first year may enroll in a second year for more advanced opportunities.
