VJS partners with multiple primary and secondary schools to provide students with early career experiences and connect them with construction industry professionals. We recently hosted multiple hands-on workshops with schools like Oconomowoc High School, St. Aug Prep, and others giving students an ability to visualize themselves in the construction field. This exposure helps students identify career opportunities they may not have otherwise considered.
These school partnerships start the process in helping to build a pipeline of talent. When a student goes to seek career advice from his or her counselor, the counselor can refer them to VJS as an option.
