News Brief: NCCER Teams with Kendra Scott for Women in Construction Fundraising

11/02/2022 News Brief

The National Center of Construction Education and Research (NCCER) is excited to announce a fundraising event with jewelry maker Kendra Scott in support of NCCER’s efforts to recruit more women to the construction industry.

Women currently only account for 10.9% of the construction industry workforce.
