π° A βshe-cessionβ no more: After COVID dip, womenβs employment hits all-time high
Our very own Naomi of Build Academy was featured in a national Stateline article! Mike Price, Training Manager, said, "Women and minorities are more than capable of fulfilling the labor shortage in the trades and Build Academy is an awesome conduit to get there. Naomi is the epitome of our program. She came in with very little experience, asked hundreds of questions, and took on a leadership role from the start."
When asked how the trades would improve with more women, Naomi answered, "I think stuff would be done more efficiently, less mistakes. There's been times where I [miss a day] and Shane [Build Academy supervisor] is like, 'oh, we needed you yesterday, a lot of stuff went wrong.' I think itβs important that the trades are more diverse, between men, women, all genders, all races, all of that."
