Workforce Development
In addition to providing member services that include valuable professional development opportunities, exemplary safety training, and dedicated advocacy for our members and the industry at large, we also take focus on key initiatives that support our communities.
When looking to the future, the focus of Workforce Development is continuing to become more critical to the core of the industry.
The AGC MA WFD Taskforce is currently developing programs and resources that build awareness and educate teachers, school counselors, parents, and students of the highly rewarding career options in the commercial construction industry.
The focus and mission of the committee through our members is to recruit, retain and train the future construction workforce industry.
CONSTRUCTINGMA.org was created and developed by the Associated General Contractors of Massachusetts [AGC MA] to educate parents, teachers and school counselors, high school and college students, veterans and job seekers on the many options and benefits of choosing a career in commercial construction.
