SMART members have an excellent opportunity to further their careers in the construction industry via Rowan University’s Bachelor of Arts in Construction Management program, which has been endorsed by North America’s Building Trades Unions and is specifically intended for members pursuing career development in the building trades. This online program is designed for pre-apprentices, apprentices and journeypersons looking to gain the leadership and technical skills needed to plan, execute, monitor and control the construction process.
Some of the perks:
- Courses are entirely online, providing affordable, accessible learning that members can tailor to their schedules
- Union apprenticeships and specialized training can fulfill general education and elective requirements, accelerating degree completion
- The program includes three stackable certificates: Fundamentals of Construction Management, Project Management and Leadership (completing the full degree is not required)
- A specialized tuition rate is available to all NABTU affiliated unions
As our industry continues to evolve, leadership development will be more crucial than ever — for members’ careers and for our union.
