Big news for the future of skilled trades in Charleston! 🛠️🪠

We are incredibly grateful to Google for their generous $50,000 donation to our Charleston training apprenticeship center. This investment directly supports the next generation of skilled professionals right here in our community.

Many of our current apprentices gained invaluable experience working on Google’s Moncks Corner data center project, and this donation is a wonderful recognition of their hard work and contribution. Thank you, Google, for investing in our team and the Lowcountry's workforce!

WE SUPPORT WOMEN IN CONSTRUCTION!!! 💪🏼👑

We’re kicking off Women in Construction Month with Women in Construction Week and NAWIC!

Women in Construction (WIC) Week is a nationwide movement dedicated to advancing and celebrating the vital role women play in the construction industry.

This is where connection meets momentum — and we’re honored to be part of it. Let's start off by learning a little about our local NAWIC South Atlantic Region the covers chapters in North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia. You can learn more about them and their exciting plans for WIC Week. Find your local at their website: https://nawic.org/regions-and-chapters/south-atlantic-region/
