Construction Leadership Program
The CAWV created the Construction Leadership Program in 2023 to educate young professionals on the many perspectives and tools of the construction industry. The program focuses on maximizing the leadership potential of young professionals to benefit them personally and professionally and enriches West Virginia's construction industry.

The program is ideal for estimators, safety coordinators, operation managers, project managers, field resource coordinators, construction superintendents, and others in the construction field. This program is limited to 25 participants.
