Construction Career Days at Seven Years and Still Going Strong
In early October, Colorado’s construction industry professionals hosted more than 1,700 high school students and teachers at the 7th annual Colorado Construction Career Days events at the Adams County Fair Grounds.
“The first few years we had to do a lot of work to get high schools signed up for this event,” says Cathy Rock, construction technology dept. chair at Red Rocks Community College and a Career Days Committee member. “This year, I sent one e-mail reminder out to [one school district] and immediately about 400 students were signed up.”
