Getting the construction management degree is great. Just don't become one of those people who sit there and bark orders from the ivory tower without knowing how stuff works in the field. Make sure you make all inclusive contracts and learn how to live and die by the contract and its verbage. It becomes a game of cat and mouse with subcontractors and do not leave things to interpretation. You superintendents will love you for this.

Where are you going to school?

If you are really lucky, you will realize that the office is not where you want to be, and follow the path of being a Superintendent.

Since when is being ACI grade 1 certified a requirement to be a construction manager.

I know a lot of companies are requiring their employees to be OSHA 10 certified regardless of position. Might as well get the 30 hour out of the way. It looks as that is where things are head anyways, and looks good on your resume.
