Last Thursday, the University of Alaska (UA) showcased construction pathways and partnerships at the 2023 Associated General Contractors (AGC) of Alaska annual meeting. During the panel presentation, University of Alaska: Producing Alaskan Workers for Alaska’s Workforce, panelists shared the breath of UA construction pathways that lead to high-demand jobs; how K-12, UA and industry partners are collaborating to support students and close workforce gaps; and where to access resources and information for strengthening partnerships.
Continuing momentum of the construction workforce dialogue, UA will be hosting a virtual Construction & Planning Listening Session — the public is welcome to share how UA can improve partnerships with the construction community, and provide ideas to help strengthen the connection between industry and education to train Alaskans for jobs in Alaska.
