Join WRTP | BIG STEP and the Building Trades Council of South Central in our upcoming Youth Construction Career Fair. The career fair will be held in person on July 27 & 28 at the Labor Temple for students between the ages of 16 – 24.
During the career fair high school students will explore a ride range of construction careers in the building trades, such as; bricklayers, carpenters, drywall finishers, electricians, glaziers, iron workers, laborers, operating engineers, painters, plumbers, roofers, sheet metal workers, steamfitters, tile setters. Each trade will have a different tent/workstation outside. The station will have information about a specific trade and a hands-on activity related to it.
Afterwards, students can visit the “employer career fair” on the other side of the lawn, which will have local contractors currently hiring.
