One Industry Committed to Careers that Build America
Founding Members MISSION To be an industry of choice that speaks with a single voice and consistent messages to promote and advance careers in construction.
WHY was the CCA created? Demand for skilled construction professionals is projected to exceed the supply well into the 2020 s. Some estimates project a need for 2 million craft professionals by 2020 Construction management professionals and engineers face similar shortages. For over 25 years this demand supply imbalance has been a consistent and persistent issue facing all sectors of the construction industry. Projections are that the demand for skilled construction professionals will continue to increase over the next 7 to 10 years.
WHY was the CCA created? Two specifics items make the challenge even greater: 1) The pool of available young talent from which to recruit is shrinking Statistics tell us that, today, the percentage of the U.S. population that is under 18 is declining and the percentage of our population that is over 50 is increasing. 2) Competition from other industries is increasing As the economy continues to rebound, industry specific recruiting programs are growing at a rapid rate. More than ever before, construction must compete with automotive, maritime, healthcare, aerospace, transportation, manufacturing, and many other industries that have similar demand supply imbalances.
WHY was the CCA created? Over the last 20 years, the various sectors of the construction industry have developed and deployed a myriad of career awareness and recruiting programs. Numerous pockets of excellence were created and many programs realized some level of effectiveness. It is clear that: New and innovative thinking is required. The various sectors of the construction industry must come together with broad commitment, pooled resources, singular focus and consistent messages. All sectors of construction must speak with one voice as we compete against growing competition to capture the hearts and minds of the next generation of construction professionals.
Collectively, CCA will leverage formidable resources in support of it s critical mission that includes: Nearly 100,000 Contractors Over 500 Construction Users Over 2 Million Craft Professionals Nearly 800,000 Construction Students Over 200,000 CTE Professionals Over 250,000 Counselors Nearly 80,000 Instructors/Teachers Over 120 University Programs Over 1,000 Industry, Secondary and Postsecondary Training Programs Nearly 10,000 Training Locations
