    The Construction Industry Education Foundation (CIEF) is excited about the 2025 DFW Trades Day Event  A Day for Construction Career Exploration!

    Trades Day introduces high school youth to industry career opportunities in construction, design, sub-contracting, heavy equipment, engineering, and other skilled trades.

     

    We hope you – our partners from the skilled trades, industry, training, post-secondary programs, and others – will join us to inspire local students to pursue careers in construction. Bring a hands-on activity for students to explore all the industry has to offer; teach them how to swing a hammer, try their hand at mixing cement, scale a wall for roofing, or throw on some PPE and get them welding. Anything to get their hands and minds moving! For more information regarding DFW Trades Day, contact Delyssa Wise at .dwise@cief.foundation

     

    Take part in an exciting opportunity to pass along what excites you about your profession!
