The
Construction 2+2+2 project is a project that was grant funded by the North-Far
North Regional Consortia and is being managed under
the direction of the Center for Science, Industry, and Natural Resources (SINR)
at Shasta College. The goals of this project are:
- develop a clear, well-communicated
career pathway for high school students to enter the construction
industry that will include a paid internship program with local
contractors;
- develop strategies for informing
students, parents, and counselors about career opportunities in the
construction field;
- develop and adopt a standardized
curriculum by all participating high school construction programs to ensure a base skill set
for 2+2+2 internship program members.
The objectives of the project as
defined in the grant are:
-
Develop collaborative Oversight
Committee represented by Shasta College, local high schools, ROP, Shasta
Builder's Exchange, Association of General Contractors, CSU Chico

curriculum that will be used by all of the high school and ROP construction
programs in the area.
