Construction Management Training Triangle Area Update
Minority Contractors learned the best safety procedures at Brasfield & Gorrie
Trainees attended the safety session of our CMT Program last Thursday, hosted by Brasfiel & Gorrie Raleigh office. It was a great session to learn how to manage safety, the importance of creating a safe environment and culture as well as how to assess safety risks.
We will have our signature CMT program in Charlotte during the fall. This week, we thank Brasfield & Gorrie for hosting the session. We also thank our sponsor for supporting the development of the construction community.
LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES
Joining and supporting HCAC activities is another fantastic way to get involved and support our mission to develop Hispanic contractors in the Carolinas.
