Your Path to a Construction Career

So you want to enter construction, but are not sure how?  This graphic, by the Los Angeles Alliance for a New Economy (LAANE) Construction Careers project, breaks down the pathway to getting into an apprenticeship program.

Apprenticeships are rigorous training programs that combine in-class and on-the-job training for workers in a specific trade. Apprenticeships help train new workers, retrain current workers, and allow the industry to adapt to emerging technologies. Learn more about apprenticeships.
