Currently, there is a high demand for workers in the construction industry. Therefore, ACEF would like to attract the career-displaced and economically disadvantaged individuals with interest in the construction field. Participants in our program will get the training, career placement opportunities and information needed to put them on track for advancement in the construction industry.
ACEF is dedicated to the educational needs of the construction industry through the development of Safety Training, Management Education Seminars, and Continuing Education Workshops. Whether you are a contractor that needs 75 employees to become OSHA certified or a journeyman requiring an 8 hour continuing education workshop for license renewal, ACEF has the program for you.
If our scheduled, multi-employer courses do not fit your schedule, or you have a need for a program specifically designed for your company, ACEF can partner with you to develop programs that will address those needs. Contact our Executive Director, Kathy Fulks, to inquire and discuss program options for your company.
