The HBASC has embraced the National Association of Home Builders - Home Builders Institute Pre-Apprentice Certification Training Program (HBI PACT)
and re-branded it as the
HBASC Trades N Training Program.
We have coordinated the adoption of this program in Durango & Bayfield High School shop classes.
Program highlights include:
- Offers students the opportunity to gain experience & certification in a variety of construction related trades including carpentry, electrical, plumbing, building construction technology, and others
- Integrates contextual, work-based learning with vocational and academic skills training in the classroom;
- Includes employability and life skills, career development, and on-the-job training.
This program will not only assist our industry in providing a skilled workforce, but we will also be providing our youth career opportunities that they may not otherwise have access to.
