Austin’s unprecedented growth and major infrastructure projects like the IH-35 expansion, Project Connect, and airport redevelopment require 10,000 skilled workers annually.
Currently, regional training programs meet only 40% of this demand and women make up just 14% of the industry’s workforce. Workforce shortages risk project delays, impacting economic and community development.
