Go Build Alabama Updates Training Page for Skilled Trades Development

To support workforce growth in Alabama's expanding commercial construction sector, Go Build Alabama has launched an updated version of its Training Page. The new platform serves as a user-friendly directory, providing access to a wide variety of training opportunities. These include high school career tech programs, apprenticeships, college pathways, and industry-specific certifications, according to a recent news release.

"This … represents a forward-looking investment in Alabama’s commercial construction industry," said Jason Phelps, executive director of the Alabama Construction Recruitment Institute. "By simplifying access to high-quality training, we’re creating more opportunities for individuals and helping employers build the talent they need."
The revamped Training Page allows users to filter training opportunities by trade, region, and program type, making it easier for individuals to find education paths that align with their career goals. The platform also highlights grant-funded training opportunities backed by the Alabama Construction Industry Craft Training Board, which offers discounted rates for those seeking additional support.
As the platform grows, it will continuously evolve to provide the latest programs and opportunities available in the state's construction industry. This makes it an essential resource for skilled trades education and workforce development.
“We’re focused on delivering a resource that keeps pace with industry demands,” Phelps continued. “As we expand training opportunities statewide, this platform will be essential to building a strong and sustainable future for Alabama’s workforce.”
The updated hub is expected to become the primary destination for individuals seeking skilled trades education in Alabama. It aims to provide a comprehensive, up-to-date overview of all available construction training programs across the state.
