Community College and Technical College Construction Programs
Most local community and technical colleges offer a range of construction focused programs. These courses tend to be low in cost but rich in content.
In-House Construction Training Programs
Many construction firms operate their own in-house training programs designed to prepare new hires with little to no construction experience. These programs are a great way to earn while you learn.
Construction Apprenticeship Training
Earn while you learn through an apprenticeship training program. These dedicated centers offer a rigorous training experience and provide nearly-guaranteed job placements.
Four-Year College Degree
Many four-year universities offer dedicated construction degrees and areas of study. This includes civil engineering and construction sciences programs. Groups, including the AGC Education & Research Foundation, offer scholarship opportunities to help cover tuition.
