NAHB pledges to train 50,000 new workers
In an effort to meet the labor shortage head-on, the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) has pledged to train 50,000 new workers over the next 5 years for a career in the construction trades.
President Trump signed an executive order establishing the National Council for the American Worker. The council will develop a national strategy for training and retraining workers for high-demand industries.
NAHB Chairman Randy Noel made the pledge announcement while attending a White House event on workforce development.
“NAHB applauds President Trump’s leadership for signing an executive order that will develop a national strategy to expand job-training and apprenticeship opportunities for students and workers and give them the proper tools to succeed in the American workforce,” Noel said.
Also a custom home builder in LaPlace, La., Noel noted that, “Given the chronic labor shortages in the home building industry, I am especially pleased to attend this important White House event.”
The Home Builders Institute, the NAHB’s workforce development arm, is a national leader for career training in the home building industry.
“To honor the administration’s important commitment to America’s workers, we will expand our training, certification and job placement programs for underserved and at-risk youth, transitioning military, veterans, ex-offenders and displaced workers,” Noel said.
