• Abstract:
  The Arizona Chapter of the Associated General Contractors of America (AZAGC) Industry Readiness Program is a ten-week on-the-job training program for job seekers entering the heavy civil construction industry. The AZAGC Industry Readiness Program prepares job seekers for highway construction careers through two phases. The first phase is a one-week training program to introduce prospective construction workers to highway construction careers through contractor presentations about their firms, apprenticeship programs, entry-level construction skills training, and construction project visits. The second phase is nine-week on-the-job training work experience with a contractor who is committed to hiring trainees and providing apprenticeship opportunities.
