National Apprenticeship Week (NAW) is November 17-23, 2024. It’s the tenth annual nationwide celebration, created by the Office of Apprenticeship, where employers, industry associations, labor organizations, community-based organizations, workforce partners, education providers and government leaders host events to showcase the successes and value of Registered Apprenticeships. The collective work from these partners has broadened the public awareness of Registered Apprenticeships.

Each year contractors experience turnover. Some established workers leave for new opportunities while others are laid off until projects start back up. The construction industry saw 150,000 workers quit in December 2023, while layoffs totaled 169,000.
It sometimes feels like every day news articles from across the country describe a construction accident that ended in tragedy.
More women in construction could be just what the industry needs right now. The construction industry is facing an unprecedented worker shortage. According to the Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC), the construction industry will need to attract an estimated 501,000 additional workers on top of the normal pace of hiring in 2024 to meet the demand for labor. In 2025, the industry will need to bring in nearly 454,000 new workers on top of normal hiring to meet industry demand, and that’s presuming that construction spending growth slows significantly next year.
Training is part of the employee lifecycle. Training and development are tied to a strong culture and engaged employees. But for many industries, training is also necessary – and required – to provide a safe working environment.
