LOCAL CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES
"GET INVOLVED"

Question: Where can I find talented, motivated, well-trained, and loyal construction technicians in my area?

Answer: Construction technology at your local high school provides all of the above and gives you a chance to get more involved with your local school. More than one hundred (100) construction companies in Idaho are already participating. If you don’t get involved with your local high school you’re letting competing companies get ahead.

Construction technology is a true school-to-career initiative through public high schools that pairs qualified students with your company through a classroom and experiential training process that includes a mentored internship. Construction technicians are bright young adults from your community, committed to careers as technicians in your company. Construction students are trained through classroom work, and one-on-one mentoring. A construction technician is truly your technician molded by you, to your standards through a process that literally, allows you to ‘grow your own technician.”
Many of today’s young construction technology men and women are looking for careers that offer them the chance to turn their high school education into lifetime opportunities.

Construction Technology is a nationally recognized business and education partnership. The program combines a rigorous educational process with job shadowing, mentoring, employability skills, and hands-on-training to prepare students for entry-level positions in construction and for important post-secondary opportunities in college or certificate-based schools.

Please contact your local school district as to how you might participate or call the Idaho Division of Professional-Technical Education, Harold Nevill at (208) 334-3216 or fax number (208) 334-2365.
