Construction, Pre-Apprenticeship

The Construction Exploration, a partnership between Southeast Tech, the Associated General Contractors (AGC) and other industry partners provides high school students an insider’s view of the construction industry. By employing classroom instruction, lab experience and on-the-job training, students 16 years of age and older will spend 10 weeks exploring the concepts included in both commercial and residential construction. Students will be employed by an AGC member and will be paid for all hours including those spent in the classroom and the lab. Emphasis will be put on workplace safety and proper methods employed in all phases of the construction process.
