AGC Workforce Development Scholarships
Scholarship Sponsored by Associated General Contractors of America
History and background
In 2015, the National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER), through its Build Your Future initiative, provided funding that made the first Workforce Development scholarships possible. That initial award cycle supported 19 recipients. Those Workforce Development scholarships are $1,000 per year and may be renewed for up to two years.
