• Abstract:
  Across the nation, there is a shortage of highway construction workers, who keep the transportation industry and economy moving forward. The U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) partnered with other key national highway organizations and the Employment and Training Administration to establish the Highway Construction Workforce Partnership (HCWP). The partnership brings highway construction, education, and workforce interests together at state and local levels to identify, train, and place individuals into trade occupations to fill industry workforce gaps. The programs are managed by the partner working groups that identify workforce needs and resources. HCWPs in Alabama, Denver, Idaho, and Rhode Island have launched successful working groups.
