The trades can be one of the most fulfilling careers for the right person but due to stereotypes and long-held beliefs about continuing education, these options are left on the cutting room floor. This misunderstanding leads to a number of perfect candidates for construction never entering the field. To explore the reasons why, our host, Mike Merrill, sits down with Mike Brewer - CEO and founder of the Brewer Companies and Senior Advisor for Synergos.

 

Brewer explains why there is a hang-up about construction and the trades, what can be done to change the perspective of young adults and their parents and his specific approach that has led to a curriculum that creates plumbers in 4 months instead of 4 years.
