3rd Annual HBRACC Construction Career Day
Kurt Raber, Tom Swensson, and Hugo Coutinho represented Brown Lindquist Fenuccio & Raber Architects, Inc. at the 2017 Home Builders & Remodelers Association of Cape Cod (HBRACC) Construction Career Day on October 19th. This was the third year HBRACC brought together high school seniors and juniors from all towns on the Cape to learn about the residential construction industry.
As one of the Cape’s largest industries, the residential construction trades is facing a severe shortage of skilled young talent in a myriad of related professions. Through this event HBRACC aims to educate, motivate, and inspire young people to job shadow, intern, apprentice, and seek the necessary & appropriate training to apply and be hired for a position in a field they desire. Students can learn about internships and various employment opportunities.
The Construction Career Day brings awareness to hundreds of high school students, career & guidance counselors, school instructors & administrators, policy makers, and parents about the opportunities for full-time well-paying year-round jobs & careers for our youth here on Cape Cod. The event allows students the opportunity to learn about the phases of building a home and through this new found awareness, find a field they want to pursue.
