AMEN!!

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.

The best Superintendents come from the Trades. Usually Carpenters, since they have the most interaction with th e other trades

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

Good question

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.


Amen, again
