Construction Education Foundation of North Texas

Construction Education Foundation of North Texas CEF is dedicated to providing students and employees in the construction industry avenues of broadening their skill levels.
(27)

CEF was created through an alliance of the members of Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC), North Texas Chapter, and Associated General Contractors (AGC), Dallas Chapter. Associated General Contractors (AGC), Fort Worth Chapter and The American Subcontractors Association (ASA), North Texas Chapter joined the partnership later in 1996. In January 2009, ABC and AGC joined forces and became TEXO

Association. The Participating Associations include The National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC), Dallas and Fort Worth Chapters; Plumbing Heating and Cooling Contractors Association of Texas (PHCC-TX); Texas Air Conditioning Contractors of America (TACCA); National Fire Sprinkler Association (NFSA); North American Crane Bureau (NACB); and Texas Fire Sprinkler Contractors Association (TFSCA). The purpose of CEF is to provide the construction industry with the most qualified technically trained people, from Craft Workers to the Supervisory level. CEF also provides the entire construction community with a funding mechanism to meet the needs of contractors and owners. The CEF North Texas Training Program began under the auspices of Associated Builders and Contractors and has been in existence since 1981. In 1989 we successfully negotiated with North Lake College for college level accreditation of Craft Education Training Classes and related programs. Obtaining college credit not only enhanced the professional image of the courses, but also provided a professional career path for our craft apprentices and trainees. In 1995, The Associated Builders and Contractors partnered their craft training with other associations and began the transition to a new umbrella organization, the National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER). In 1996, the NCCER became the official national organization to accredit and standardize craft training for the construction industry. Also in 1996, an alliance developed to form this foundation, the Construction Education Foundation. It is patterned after the National Center for Construction Education and Research. Today our craft training program has expanded to locations from Fort Worth to East Dallas, and as far east as Tyler, Texas.
