We're in the @atlbizchronicle!

🎓 The Chronicle featured our recent celebration of @westsideworks’ 50th @constructionready graduation class, diving into what this milestone means for metro Atlanta. The article explores how the partnership between Westside Works and Construction Ready has evolved since 2014 - from its roots in the construction of @mercedesbenzstadium to becoming a proven pathway for career advancement. Now, that impact continues with @centennialyards, where @cimgroup has hired 65 Construction Ready graduates, including about a dozen from this most recent class, to help build this transformative development. "The economic impact is huge," says Scott Shelar, President and CEO of Construction Ready, in the piece, speaking to the broader ripple effects when individuals gain access to quality career opportunities in construction. With 50 cohorts now complete and 100% placement for this latest class, the numbers tell an important story about what that success actually looks like for families and communities across the Westside. As CareerRise supports Westside Works and this vital partnership with Construction Ready, we're proud to see this work recognized and the impact it creates across metro Atlanta.
