Transportation construction partners held a mini construction career days event at Camp Blanding recently to acquaint the Florida Youth ChalleNGe Academy cadets with career opportunities.
More people continue to make Florida home and there is a continued increase in visitors to Florida. An ongoing need exists for qualified construction workers to help build safe and efficient roadway systems.
In order to increase the number of workers in the construction industry, transportation industry officials began an educational outreach program for high school students in 1999, which is called Construction Career Days.
Here is a video highlighting the event at Camp Blanding. We appreciate the Florida National Guard and the Youth ChalleNGe Academy for their partnership. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6M98vtTmQQ
