The
ABC Student Chapters Program is a dynamic network of more than 60 colleges and universities offering construction-related degree programs nationwide. At the local level, student chapters facilitate the interaction of ABC member firms, construction faculty and college students through a variety of industry association and school events, including regular membership meetings, guest speakers, internships, community service projects, fundraisers, career fairs/career awareness events, job site tours and other activities.
Benefits to ABC student chapter members include scholarships, excellence awards, an annual construction management competition, faculty teaching awards, fellowships to attend the ABC Legislative Conference, an essay contest and much more.
In addition to the student chapters, ABC provides many of its education, training and safety programs through partnerships and articulation agreements with colleges and universities.
