For Parents

Demand Projected to Grow for Construction Careers  

As your child’s greatest supporter, we recognize that you want what is best for them: to be healthy, happy and successful, both as children and as adults. As a parent you play an integral role in guiding them along the right path. As your child receives their high school diploma, we hope you encourage your child to explore the many careers in construction.

A construction career offers good pay and benefits, ability to continue education, potential to advance, and opportunities to be your own boss. In the next ten years, the construction industry will need additional workers to cover new work and a retiring workforce. And it’s not just careers in the skilled trades. Administrative, design, and construction management careers are all on the rise.

Your son or daughter might have what it takes to design or build the next stadium, bridge, high rise, or even your town’s next hospital. Help your child consider a construction career in Wisconsin and watch them build a successful future!
