Complete Attendance not available before workshop starts.

Presenter: Dr. Edelmiro F. Escamilla | Texas A&M University - Construction Science

This session is best for community partners committed to student success who influence career awareness, pathways, and workforce readiness. The session will highlight the urgent need for a skilled construction workforce, share data-driven insights, and address common misconceptions about construction careers through real-world examples and student-centered perspectives. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of modern construction opportunities and practical language to rethink the industry as innovative, respected, and economically strong. Ultimately, this session will help partners shift perceptions, dispel negative myths, and more confidently guide students toward high-demand construction career pathways.
