Monday, April 15 commemorated the 7th Annual ComEd CONSTRUCT Program Graduation in which 102 participants graduated with the necessary training and development of skills required for entry-level, construction-related jobs. CEO, Joe Dominguez, opened up the celebration and congratulated the graduates as well as thanked the participating companies and sponsoring organizations. Since its launch in 2013, Construct has been building a stronger and more diverse workforce for the construction industry by helping increase the pool of qualified minority candidates for construction-related jobs in Illinois. New this year was a pilot night-course program designed to better serve CONSTRUCT students, as ComEd wanted to offer greater access those eagerly seeking new careers who typically work during the day. Employment rate for graduates is at 80 percent and the program has served over 500 students to date.
