ON SITE ACADEMY
On Site Academy is our schooling program for kids and young adults interested in a career in the trades.
At On Site Academy you will learn everything it takes to build a home from the ground up, with an emphasis on how to frame it. In the modern world we see unemployment rates rising while there are still so many essential jobs available. We are in the midst of a skilled laborer shortage, and we understand it will take the attention of men and women already established in the field to interest and educate this new generation of workers.
Our goal at On Site Academy… isn’t just for the students to leave having learned a skill, but leave being excited about their future knowing there’s opportunities beyond the traditional 4 year school. Our curriculum doesn’t only cover knowledge required to be skilled in the field, but knowledge that will apply to any job our students take moving forward. Whether it’s office administration, reading a w2, or getting familiar with popular construction management programs such as CoConstruct, students will leave OSA feeling confident in their next move.
