North Bay Construction Corps –Marin Class: Sponsored by Mario Ghilotti Family Foundation

This program places high school seniors directly into the construction industry with local Marin Builders Association firms. Each cohort concludes with a 2-week, onsite construction bootcamp followed by a hiring fair and possible job placement.

Training the future leaders in our industry has never been more important. Mario Ghilotti’s vision was to encourage and assist the next generation to get into construction and the trades. We are so pleased with our partnership with Marin Builders Association, which helps to bring the North Bay Construction Corps to students in Marin.
