The Born to Build program is designed to promote and increase awareness of the range of career pathways available to young people in the building and construction industry. Many of the trades within this industry are experiencing high demand resulting in great opportunities for those choosing a career in building and construction.

We do this by visiting schools and career expos to present to students, use real-life tasks so students can gain an insight into the various trades and provide resources.
