Sponsored by a grant from the

“Department of Business and Professional

Regulation” and “Building a Safer Florida, Inc.” to the

M.E. Rinker, Sr. School of Construction

Management at the University of Florida

M.E. Rinker, Sr. School of Construction Management

The M.E. Rinker, Sr. School of Construction Management at the University of Florida

combines the skills, diverse experiences, and talents of its faculty with an innovative educational

curriculum to educate future construction professionals. Housed in the College of Design,

Construction and Planning, the Rinker School is dedicated to construction science and

management and is committed to excellence in education and research. Established in 1935, it is

the oldest school of construction in the U.S. and the first program to receive accreditation from

the American Council for Construction Education (1975). Twenty faculty members teach and

guide the School’s 500 undergraduate and 120 graduate students. The School’s new building,

Rinker Hall, is the 26th building to have been awarded LEED Gold certification by the U.S. Green

Building Council. The Rinker School has substantial experience with crafts training and has had

extensive collaboration with the National Center for Construction Education and Research

(NCCER), the premier crafts training education organization, for the past 18 years. Most recently

the Rinker School developed a crafts training program, Training for Manufactured Construction

(TRAMCON), that provides students with hybrid manufacturing/construction credentials. These

credentials also provide training across multiple crafts including carpentry, plumbing, electrical,

and HVAC using NCCER training modules.

Mission Statement

The mission of the M. E. Rinker, Sr. School of Construction Management is to be the center

of excellence for construction. The Rinker School will pursue this by:

Promoting professional and ethical behavior in education and practice.

Advancing the industry by creating new knowledge through research and scholarly

activities.

Educating individuals in principles, knowledge and skills required to be successful in

their professional careers.

Providing service and transferring knowledge to the citizens of Florida, the

construction industry, professional societies, the nation, and the world.

The Rinker School will achieve this mission by fostering a core culture of value and quality.

Executive Summary

The Rinker School of Construction

Management at the University of Florida has

been tasked with evaluating workforce

training availability in Florida. This study

will support the evaluation of workforce

development programs in the state and allow

for better understanding of the types and

training offered as well as where they are

offered and how they are sponsored.

Workforce shortages in the state are

historically cyclical and follow significant

lulls in construction volume over time. Most

recently, there was a significant downfall in

construction volume in Florida starting in

2007 (see Figure 1 below), with the recovery

beginning in 2012. The significance of this

most recent economic cycle to the state is that

the downturn started earlier in Florida and

lasted longer than the national average.

Construction employment follows

general housing and building trends as well.

The difficulty for the recovering market is

replacing the trained workforce that left the

state or the industry during the economic

downturn. High demand for trained workers

increases pressure on construction firms to

employ unqualified workers who are trained

through an informal on-the-job training

(OJT) process, resulting in initial quality,

productivity, and safety issues compared to a

trained worker. National construction

employment demands are reflected in Figure

2 below.

Construction workforce training appears

in various formats, including high school magnet

programs, vocational schools, and

apprenticeships. The purpose of this report is to

provide a snapshot of the availability of training

relative to the increased demand and the lack of

interested applicants. Training programs

themselves are not adequate for filling the

workforce void. Current studies indicate that

50% of the construction workforce is 45 years or

older. An aging workforce, increasing in

construction volume and decreasing interest in

construction employment is creating the perfect

storm for severe labor shortages. These labor

shortages have the potential to limit the growth

of the construction industry, increase

construction costs, and limit the types of

construction trades available to service market

needs. These factors are the reasons that a

Workforce Task Force and research are required.

Project Deliverables

The Construction Workforce Taskforce has been established via state legislation to address the

shortage of skilled crafts people and inspectors training in Florida. The taskforce will discuss and

recommend methods for craft workers and inspectors in the state of Florida.

The Workforce Taskforce specifically aims to analyze the following:

Address the critical shortage of individuals trained in building construction and inspection.

Develop a consensus path for training the next generation of construction workers in the state.

Determine the causes or the current shortage of a trained construction industry work force and

address the impact of the shortages on the recovery of the real estate market.

Review current methods and resources available for construction training.

Review the state of construction training available in K-12 schools.

Address training issues relating to building code inspectors to increase the number qualified

inspectors.

Key Discussion 5:

Review the state of construction

training available in K-12 schools.

In the era of sustainable development,

career pathways; job creation opportunities,

and training programs must also be

sustainable. Career pathways and trainings

must be closely tied to the growing industries

to ensure growth and continuity. For career

pathway trainings to be sustainable, it must

be of good quality, related to the needs of

industry and the labor market. This becomes

a win-win for both industry and individuals;

as time, energy and resources invested will

not go wasted. A connection between training

programs and education to employment is

very necessary especially for the youth and

young adults looking to start a career path.

This helps job seekers to make salary and at

the same time develop quality skills needed

for future career paths. A typical example is

the Earn and Learn training program models.

Career training programs that fall under this

category include but not limited to,

Apprenticeship programs, On-the-job

training (OJT) programs, Subsidized

employment under the temporary assistant

for the needy, Migrant Education Program

(MEP). The Local Education Agency assists

these educators and sponsor with

standardized related classroom instructions

and training documents.

To achieve a successful skilled

apprenticeship program, dependence on pre-

apprenticeship programs is very necessary.

Pre-apprenticeship programs are mostly for

high school and middle school students.

Aligning an apprenticeship program with

pre-apprenticeship programs ensure students

have the required soft skills and basic

education necessary for the apprenticeship

program. Also, some pre-apprenticeship

programs have multi programs that cover

different trades in order to make the choice of

career pathways more flexible for applicants.

Registered Apprenticeship (RA) and pre-

apprenticeship programs are very important

to construction workforce and aligning pre-

apprenticeship programs to specific

apprenticeship program ensures a successful

transition in the program. An example of a

well-coordinated and organized pre-

apprenticeship program that is well aligned to

specific apprenticeship programs is the Multi

Craft Core Curriculum (MC3) (IWG, 2012).

Florida Career and Technical Education

Pre-Apprenticeship Programs

The bigger umbrella under which pre-

apprenticeship programs fall is the Career

and Technical Education training programs

(CTE). These are programs channeled at high

school, middle school, district technical

school, and college students. The aim of the

program is to prepare these youth towards a

career pathway by providing them in addition

to their academic program, a technical skill

that will equip then for post-secondary

education, workforce training, and entry-

level jobs. The program is directed towards

the junior and senior years of high school.

Some require students to take extra courses in

specific programs. Other CTE programs also

involve a work-based learning (WBL), which

places students in industry to learn specific

skills. This program is similar to registered

apprenticeship program in terms of structure,

classroom instructions, technical skills and

industry experience. However, CTE program

WBL is less intensive than the registered

apprenticeship program.

Overview and Administration

In an attempt to improve the knowledge

and skills set of Florida workforce,

collaboration with both the private and public

sector through a network of service providers

come together to create the Career and Adult

Education (CAE). The CAE program is to

meet the needs of students and schools,

business and industry, community-based

organizations and correctional institutions.

Under this section are the Career & Technical

Education (CTE) programs, which are

designed to prepare and train individuals in

careers that are relevant to the economic

development of the state of Florida. The CAE

is a division under the Florida Department of

Education (DOE). The same division also

runs the RA program but these programs are

run separately. Pre-apprenticeship program

in the state of Florida, normally accepts

students 16 years or more. The program can

range between 6 months to 2 years.

Participants receive general elective credits

and may also receive credits towards RA

program, which can reduce their RA program

to about a year less. As mentioned in Figure

1 and 2a, 153 students participated in the pre-

apprenticeship program in Florida as at 2013.

Seventeen different career categories are

recognized under the CTE program. Out of

the 17 categories, 4 clusters; Architecture &

Construction, Energy, Engineering &

Technology Education, and Manufacturing;

can be said to be construction related.

Seventeen pre-apprenticeship programs

categories were available in the state that

same year, with 16 out of the 17 being related

to construction and manufacturing sectors.

The state of Florida has 5 people assigned on

a regional level in charge of all

apprenticeship and pre-apprenticeship

programs in the state. Appendix A shows a

list of secondary and middle school programs

under 4 clusters. Post-secondary Educational

programs are also shown in the Table 1

below. PSAV is a high school credit

equivalent program designed for students

without high school education.

Also to ensure collaboration and

partnership between education and business

communities, the Florida Career and

Professional Education (CAPE) Act was

created. The CAPE Act was initially created

for secondary student industry certification

but has been extended to post-secondary

school industry certification. The total

number of high school (grade 9-12)

participation in CAPE programs in 2014 –

2015 was 345,847 (38.7% of total high

school population in the state). Middle school

(grade 6-8) participation was 60,209 (9.1% of

the entire middle school population). The

highest participating grades were grade 9 for

high schools and grade 8 for middle school.

Figure 2 - (a) Pre-apprenticeship program. (b)

Pre-apprenticeship fields.

Source: US. Department of Education (2016)

A total of 1662 high schools and 216 middles

schools registered under the CAPE program

in 2014-2015. Figure 3 shows the

participating schools under the 17 clusters.

Engineering and Technology Education has

130 participating high schools and 42 middle

schools. This is followed by Architecture and

Construction with 98 high school

participation and 2 middle schools.

Manufacturing has 20 high schools and 1

middle school participation while Energy

falls at the bottom of the list with 5 high

school participation and no middle school

participation (Department of Education).

Florida state organizes annual

apprenticeship day to honor and share

information on the program. The

apprenticeship program is well organized and

has a broader database than the pre-

apprenticeship program. For instance, data on

the number of people from pre-

apprenticeship program that graduated to RA

program is non-existent.

Other Career and Technical Pre-

Apprenticeship Programs

One such program is the Academy of

Construction Technologies. It is a 2-year high

school construction trade pre-apprenticeship

program for 4 counties (Orange, Osceola,

Seminole, and Volusia) in Florida. It is a non-

profit organization collaboration between

central Florida construction contractors and

trade associations; union and non-union. The

5 trades covered under this program include;

bricklayer, electrician, heating and air

conditioning installer-servicer, pipefitter-

sprinkler fitter, and plumber. It involves

students completing a 360-hour coursework

in construction and this may include work-

based learning and receives elective credit

after completing 160 hours’ coursework.

Another youth educational and

technical program available in the state of

Florida is the program organized by the

Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) office

of education. This office works with other

stakeholders to train and meet the educational

needs of DJJ students. The Ready to Work

program provides individuals the needed

skills required to enter into workforce. Pre

and post assessments are used to direct

individual to specific skill sets needed for

entry-level employment. Ready to Work

credentials include gold, silver and bronze.

Ready to Work credentials attained by DJJ

students in 2013-2014 was 335; 34 gold, 190

silver and 111bronze. DJJ students can also

complete course to earn them a General

Educational Development (GED)

certification. This is geared towards students

from ninth grade and above. The office of

work also offers CTE programs to help DJJ

students get employment or enhance their

employment opportunities. In 2013 to 2014,

over 5390 DJJ students participated in the

CTE program in the state of Florida. The

CTE program for the DJJ is categorized as

Type 1, 2, and 3. Type 3 programs normally

offer certification in culinary art, carpentry,


January 27, 2017

welding, building tech/auto tech/NCCER, C-

tech telecommunications, building ground

maintenance, and information technology. In

year 2013-2014, 5,390 students participated

in the CTE program and 1,313 students

earned industry recognized certificates.

Also, the Home Builders Institute has a

program that provides career and technical

education to at-risk and adjudicated young

individuals. It offers this program in 8

counties in Florida. The program had 81%

placement rate for graduates, 311 individuals

obtained a Pre-Apprenticeship Certificate

Training (PACT) certificates.

Financial Aids

These programs are mostly supported by

state and federal funds in collaboration with

industry contractors. The Perkin’s grant, a

federal fund from the U.S. Department of

Education is available to support CTE

programs in the state of Florida. As shown in

Figure 4, majority of the funds went to

building construction technology. Other

grants available to support CTE programs

include, Second Chance Act grant, and the

JABG grant. The JABG grant is specifically

geared towards construction trade training.

Conclusion and Recommendations

It was observed that the existence of

pre-apprenticeship programs at high school

level is very critical to increasing

construction trade workforce, but these

programs are severely challenged in diverse

ways. The most common and critical one is

the alignment with the existing RA programs.

As mentioned earlier in the report, pre-

apprenticeship and apprenticeship programs

are managed separately. This separation can

add additional stress to the alignment of the

programs. It is advised that linkages between

the programs should be highly encouraged

and also there is the need for inter-agency

collaboration to help address this issue. When

there is collaboration between pre-

apprenticeship and apprenticeship program,

apprenticeship program coordinators and

sponsors will ensure that pre-apprenticeship

programs are well structured and directed

towards the specific skill set required to enter

into the apprenticeship program, thereby

ensuring a smooth transition.

Also mentioned earlier in the report is

the lack of resources. Florida employs five

regional representatives. The workload on

these representatives and the travel distance

between counties and cities might be too

much for them to effectively carry out their

duties. An increase in this number will go a

long way to help the pre-apprenticeship and

apprenticeship programs in Florida.

Lack of awareness can also be a huge

factor to this challenge. There is a big

misconception out there that needs to be

corrected. Creating awareness by educating

employers, parents, schools and students

about the benefits of pre-apprenticeship

program will go a long way to boost these

programs. In Florida, the annual

Apprenticeship day is a way of bringing all

stakeholders together to discuss issues. More

of such programs should be organized more

frequently to help address this problem.

The issue of liability also becomes a

big problem. Insurance companies may not

be willing to have or provide policies for

young adults below 18 years in construction

trade since construction trade is considered

high risk. In Florida, there is a waiver form

that allows students under 16 years to

participate in work-based learning that allows

students to have hands on industry

experience. Also tuition waivers and

discounts will be a great incentive to attract

more students to participate in such

programs.
