Build this city:
A free Construction Training Program

Your first step to a career in construction

Update: Thank you for your interest in our Build This City Construction Training Program. Unfortunately, our September 25th training class is now full, and we are no longer accepting applications to participate in the program.

Build This City gives job seekers FREE short-term construction skills training, including more than 10 industry-recognized health and safety certifications! Participants also get tools and all the required safety gear to get started.

“The Build This City program gave me an amazing overview of how the construction industry works and an in-depth understanding of OSHA and health and safety practices. Working with the class on hands-on projects gave me the confidence I needed to be part of a job site. My apprenticeship is all thanks to Build This City. When friends ask about entering the construction industry, I tell them to start with Build This City!” – Brendan Wilson, 1st Year Apprentice Carpenter

Build This City also helps construction sector employers by giving them access to job-ready workers and customized staff training that meets their business’ unique needs. Wage subsidies are available to employers when hiring from the Build This City program.
