Harbor Freight Fellows
Big Picture Learning, in partnership with BIF supported by Harbor Freight Tools, is designing a new form of apprenticing for youths who show significant potential and passion for the homebuilding and construction trades. Internships are 120 hours.

These young adults are an enormous, often overlooked resource who could flourish with real world apprenticing experiences that provide entrée into the professional community.

 For more information about Harbor Freight Fellows, contact Maylanee at maylanee@northstatebia.org.
