Construction Orientation Readiness Education (CORE)
As our industry changes, ABC CraftMasters changes with it. CORE has been in operation since 2008 giving you a great barometer for who you would like to develop into a Journey worker then Crew Leader, Foreman, and so on. The class has now expanded to 10 weeks offering even more valuable information demanded by the construction industry.
CORE is also the first part of year one for all trade/apprenticeship classes. It is designed to provide students with the basic knowledge and skills required in and across the construction trades. CORE is a combined class of all trades and is offered year-round to ensure that apprentices and craft trainees can quickly get the foundational knowledge and important safety classes. The combined class helps entry-level trade workers/apprentices experience their part in the broader construction community.
CORE is also suitable for assistant project managers, office personnel, warehouse and yard workers who can benefit from understanding the trades and what is expected of the workforce in the field.
