The Associated General Contractors (AGC) of California and AGC Construction Education Foundation last month launched a free, online learning platform for young people interested in construction. Build California e-cademy is a virtual construction jobsite and classroom for Californians ages 12 to 24.
“Build California e-cademy was developed to streamline the career exploration and readiness process,” says Abigail Palomares, Build California Manager, AGC of California. “For years there has been a need to not only cultivate interest in construction careers among the next generation, but also sustain their interest from their early years through high school and move them to actively pursuing a construction career.”
