AGC is working today to meet Oregon’s future construction needs. Workforce development is a targeted priority—efforts are currently underway to assure a highly skilled, diverse workforce through support of numerous programs.
AGC support of these endeavors includes time, talent and treasures. Personal contact, positive exposure to careers in construction, talking and working with students of all ages, and funding are mission critical to assure we have a skilled workforce to meet future needs.
Work begins as early as grade school, continues through high school and post-secondary education, and on to technical, degree, and even post-graduate programs.
