Workforce and Professional Development Committee

The Workforce and Professional Development Committee was created in 2009 to develop and carry out the workforce and professional development strategic objectives of the chapter. Committee appointees discuss and review the chapter’s needs to develop various education programs, recruitment efforts, and public relations and marketing messages that target the construction workforce. The committee also exercises budget and program oversight to chapter workforce initiatives.

Interested in participating on the Workforce and Professional Development Committee?  All AGC members are welcome and encouraged to attend one of our meetings. We are always seeking fresh ideas.  Contact Colette Evers for more information, 503-685-8328.
