The BIG STEP Builders program provides high school juniors and seniors the opportunity to build basic construction skills and explore the industry through hands-on learning, presentations from union members, application assistance, and more.

BIG STEP Builders takes place on weekends to work around high school juniors and seniors’ busy schedules. The only requirements are an interest in a union construction apprenticeship and a commitment to attend four Saturday sessions.

Limited seats are available per session.
