Careers in Construction Month (October)

October is Careers in Construction Month, an opportunity to increase public awareness about the opportunities available in residential construction trade professions. You can also choose to another month, week or day that works for you. The most important thing is to make a special effort to promote the trades each year.

View the Careers in Construction Month Toolkit for ideas to recognize the contributions of those professionals working in the field and to foster a positive image of construction careers.

Careers in Construction Month is sponsored by:
