CAWV
members have been joining in the national effort to encourage younger generations
to look at the construction industry as a positive career opportunity.
For the third year, a Careers in Construction seminar program was held at EXPO
for students enrolled in a construction curriculum from area vocational and technical
schools.
Approximately 300 students from arad
vocational schools attended the career day program. CAWV
members spoke to the students about career opportunities, job responsibilities,
skills and education needed to perform jobs in the construction field.
| 
The
program was designed to give these children the chance to network and meet with
professionals in the industry.
Many other members have been attending career days and
providing field trips to work sites to help younger people gain a better understanding
as to what the construction industry has to offer.
