Description
Indiana is projected to have over 140,000 construction job openings by the year 2026. The BY Plus program trains applicants to be prepared and confident for a career in construction. The program utilizes NCCER’s Core Curriculum: 80 hours of coursework that’s a combination of flexible classroom learning and onsite performance verifications.
Applicants who successfully complete the program would receive the NCCER Core Credential (includes training in basic safety, construction math, hand and power tools, construction drawings, basic rigging and communication skills) and OSHA 10 certification. Students in our program will be well informed of pathways for all aspects of construction and will be connected to the employers and training centers that will provide them with a pathway to a career in construction.
Students in BY Plus will also have the opportunity to receive paid work experience at a construction one day a week throughout training, and will be have access to enhanced services, such as transportation assistance, legal counseling, childcare, and other services designed to break roadblocks to successful employment.
Construction employers visit classes and students graduates participate in a hiring event at the end of the program, where they interview for jobs in the construction industry paying $16-24+/hr.
