The Construction Industry Education Foundation (CIEF), ACE Leadership, and AGC New Mexico are partnering up to host a joint construction career exploration event. Presenting, the 2024 AGC New Mexico & ACE Leadership Heavy Equipment Rodeo & CIEF Trades Day!
This event introduces high school youth to industry career opportunities in construction, design, sub-contracting, heavy equipment, engineering, and other skilled trades.
We hope you – our partners from the skilled trades, industry, training, post-secondary programs, and others – will join us to inspire local students to pursue careers in construction. Bring a hands-on activity for students to explore all the industry has to offer; teach them how to swing a hammer, try their hand at mixing cement, scale a wall for roofing, or throw on some PPE and get them welding. Anything to get their hands and minds moving! All Hands-On Exhibitors will receive 2 parking passes, 2 lunch passes, and one 6-foot table with 2 chairs. *If additional space, electricity, or other special requests are needed, please contact Rachel Corn at rcorn@cie.foundation or Katrina Soto at ksoto@agc-nm.org.
Take part in an exciting opportunity to pass along what excites you about your profession! Friday, October 4, 2024 | 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. Exhibitor/Sponsor registration ends on September 13, 2024.
