Wilson Talent Center’s Construction Trades program received a generous donation from the Greater Lansing Home Builders Association (HBA Lansing) following their golf outing. This contribution will directly benefit students by providing resources, tools, and training to prepare the next generation of skilled workers in the construction industry.
Construction Trades instructor Jerry Johnson accepted the donation on behalf of WTC, emphasizing the importance of industry partnerships in bridging the skills gap. These investments empower students with hands-on learning experiences that lead to meaningful careers in construction.
