With a goal of creating sustainable pathways to one of the most in-demand industries in the country, NCCER (with funding provided by Lowes) is awarding a start-up bundle valued at $20,000.
Each new construction program will offer NCCER’s Core: Introduction to Basic Construction Skills, OSHA-10, and provide an introduction to carpentry, plumbing, HVACR, or electrical craft training. The start-up bundle will include materials for 15 learners and one instructor.
