The spring cohort of this bootcamp graduated mid-March! They had the opportunity to be on a live homebuilding site where they watched Concrete Value Corp pour foundations while some students had the chance to try it out themselves. The students also had a hands on demonstration with Fletcher Plumbing who brought in their tools to show what to expect in the plumbing trades.
